Solar power plant we visited is located at
Keshegaon named as 1KW SOLAR POWER STATION, KESHEGAON. Here the power is
created using the solar power plates. The detailed process is as follows -
When light hits the solar panels, the solar
radiation is converted into direct current electricity (DC). The direct current
flows from the panels and is converted into alternating current (AC) used by
local electric utilities. Finally, the electricity travels through
transformers, and the voltage is boosted for delivery onto the transmission
lines so local electric utilities can distribute the electricity to homes and
businesses.
There are two
main ways of generating energy from the sun. Photovoltaic (PV)
and concentrating solar thermal (CST), also known as
concentrating solar power (CSP) technologies.
PV converts
sunlight directly into electricity. These solar cells are usually...
