Question

Answer in brief.

State the uses of the solar cell.

Answer 1

Uses of solar cells:

1. During the day, a solar cell array, which consists of a set of solar cells, is used to power electrical devices as well as recharge batteries that may subsequently be utilised at night.
2. Solar cell arrays supply electrical power to satellite equipment as well as isolated locations on the Earth where electric power lines are not available.
3. Solar power generation systems on a large scale that are connected to the commercial power grid.
4. Radar detectors, monitoring systems, radio relay stations, road lights, and road signs all require their own power supply.
5. Consumer electronics such as calculators, clocks, and digital thermometers are examples of indoor uses. (They operate at very low power levels and in low-brightness long-wavelength light from incandescent lights.)
