Nuclear through solar
The energy transformation in a solar calculator is from radiant(light) energy to electrical energy.
No, solar energy and solar cells are not the same, although sometimes people do use the phrases as though they were interchangable. Solar energy is energy that is transferred from the sun to the earth. Solar cells are devices that turn energy from the sun into photovoltaic energy that we can use.
solar (photovoltaic) power plant > radiant energy from the sun > converted to electrical energy
I'm not sure what you mean by this question. Do you mean "How is solar engergy transformed?" or "What are some examples of solar energy transformations?"
Well it is basically, electrical energy - thermal energy - heat energy - solar energy - kinetic energy.

Radiant energy -> electrical energy -> thermal energy
Sunlight to electricity (solar panel)
Solar Energy
Photovoltaic cells converts solar energy into electricity.
