good job
thank you for explaining it in a way I can actually understand.
Exactly what i was looking for, thanks.
Nice! This is going to help in my presentation on renewable energy in my environmental science class. =) Awesome!
It’s simple so some of the idiots in my class can understand it.
the better explanation of how a solar cell works. thanks
Legend.
Why do you let idiots in your class.
Could be your explanations are not so clear and concise!
I’m a student as well. I just happened to take Environmental Science, which is one of my more favorite sciences, but other students took it thinking it would be an easy A, which was for me, but not so much for them.
The most clear and to-the-point video I’ve found on PV solar panels. thanks
yehey! thanks for explaining this and putting it on youtube, I really need this for our electronics subject, becuase it is my report.
Yeah, make them as big as you would like, or as big as you would need, and use Resistors to control the amount of electricity that comes out, or to control the flow of how much Voltage and Amperes you would like to come out. Easy.
You know what’s funny, he’s wrong. Solars cells work the other way around. The negative layer is on the top.
you a right olsfen1…the n type layer is on top!
Great video….photovoltaic panels are probably the most cost-effective way of generating energy in the home. They are generated by daylight and work even in the UK’s overcast climate
Every minute enough energy reaches the earth for to meet the need for one year?
Yet in a video titled “Introduction to Solar Photovoltaics”, they state every hour enough energy reaches earth to meet the need for one year. So which is it, you can’t both be right. Maybe neither of you are right? Who to believe these days…
great vid, simple and easy to understand, helped me write notes for physics assessment and stopped me stressing, thanks for uploading
