Chapter Dinner Meeting

Solar 101: An Introduction to PhotoVoltaic Technologies


PRESENTED BY
Andy Behr
Solar Business Development Manager

PRESENTATION ABSTRACT

Photovoltaic (PV) devices convert photons from the sun directly into electricity. The sunlight is absorbed by a semiconducting substrate resulting in electrons being driven across the n-p boundary of semiconductor, which creates an electrical current. PV panels, like other semiconductor devices, are solid state devices. PV installations may last twenty or more years in the field. PV technologies can be deployed in a variety of applications including consumer, military, residential, commercial and utility scale solar farms. A variety of semiconductors are commercially employed in photovoltaic panels. Crystalline silicon technology has been around since the 1954 and it still represents the majority of PV production today. Thin-Film technologies including Amorphous Silicon, Cadmium Telluride, Copper Indium Gallium Diselenide and Gallium Arsenide are now commercially available and making significant in-roads in the solar market. Organic PV and Dye Sensitized Solar Cells are developmental technologies that show promise. PV panels may be configured in many ways. Two of the more common approaches are Flat-Plate solar panels and Concentrated PV (CPV). Flat-Plate panel configurations are the most common format and may be either rigid or flexible construction. CPV uses mirrors, lenses or a combination of optical devices to focus sunlight onto the semiconductor.
