What kind of energy is being produced by sunlight and solar panels?

Sunlight and photovoltaic (PV) panels (solar panels) produce electricity.Sunlight and a solar thermal collector produce heat by capturing solar radiation. The heat is then used to heat water, heat air, cook food, or heat a fluid that drives a turbine which creates electricity.Photoelectrochemical cells or PECs are solar cells that produce electrical energy or hydrogen in a process similar to the electrolysis of water.
