What are Photovoltaics?

This is the production of a small amount of electrical power through solar cells. Constructed of light sensitive materials these cells allow the solar energy to appreciate by the addition of more cells arranged and grouped together form a module. The modules are then assembled into series and strings to create the solar array.
