What Is Solar PV?
Solar PV stands for Solar Photovoltaics-a technology that converts sunlight into electricity. These systems use silicon wafer cells encased in glass that generate direct current (DC) electricity when light passes through them, which is then converted into usable alternating current (AC) by an inverter. Solar PV is one of the fastest-growing renewable energy sources across both the UK and Ireland, and is central to each government's clean energy strategy.
