Photovoltaic cells converts solar energy into electricity.
Electricity
solar
If you have solar panels installed correctly to your home/business/land then you can convert sunlunight into energy/electricity.
Wind turbines convert wind energy to mechanical energy to electrical energy.
Energy from Radiation can directly transform to electricity via photovoltaic effect in the Solarcell.
