Why solar panel can't be used to meet domestic need of electricity?

because the energy produced from the panels is just not enough to power a house load of energy!!

Why cant you produce electricity from em waves?
Actually you can. A photovoltaic cell (a.k.a. solar panel) does precisely that.
Can a solar panel work if there's no sun?
No Solar panels do not work if the sun is not out the photovoltaic cells that make up a solar panel require sunlight to produce electricity not to say that you cant have a battery that gets charged up to use during the night.
Why cant you use a transformer to increase the voltage of a 60V solar panel?
The output of a solar panel is direct current. Transformers need alternating current to operate.
Why can't solar panel work at night?
A solar pannel cant work at night because there is no sun. And a solar pannel needs sun to work.
What are the bad things about solar panels?
If your house catches on fire the fire brigade will not put out the fire because they cant turn the solar panel off and its gay
Which is more efficient way to generate electricity - solar thermal plants or photovoltaic plants?
I cant answer this question fully. However I do know that mass produced PV panels generally reach around 12-16% efficiency. It is possible to reach far higher efficiencies but not on a mass produced basis, so high efficiency PV cells only tend to make it onto special projects such as space flights, record breaking solar powered vehicles etc etc. Solar thermal panel efficiencies can hit over 90%, but it is a question then of how much energy is lost from the point of generation to where it is distributed. A solar thermal plant works in an entirely different way to a domestic panel system, so this is not strictly relevant to your question!
Does solar energy consume natural resources that cannot be renewed?
I admit that I am confused by the question. If you mean converting the power of the sun into electriciy, then yes. The process of converting solar energy (from the sun) into electricity or heat will consume nonrenewable resources, either by making electricity with solar cells or by building homes (or other buildings) using passive solar heat. However, you can recycle both building materials and solar panel materials to low the environmental costs to both. There is a cool site to make your own solar panels where they list resources to get used materials, such as used solar cells, for building your solar power system.

The type of energy from the sun?
solar energy is made from the sun. we use it for electricity its more efficient then anything else in the long run and we cant run out of it.
What effects does the solar wind have on the earths magnetic field?
Solar wind has a large effect on the earth.. It brings these clouds (cant remember name) down. which affects electricity very much. Due to the magnetic field of the clouds
What effect does the solar winds have on the earth's magnetic field?
Solar wind has a large effect on the earth.. It brings these clouds (cant remember name) down. which affects electricity very much. Due to the magnetic field of the clouds
What effect does the solar winds have on Earth's magnetic field?
Solar wind has a large effect on the earth.. It brings these clouds (cant remember name) down. which affects electricity very much. Due to the magnetic field of the clouds
Downside of solar energy?
solar energy sucks u cant put a flowmaster on solar energy sucks u cant put a flowmaster on
