The sun light hits a solar panel which in turn works by allowing photons, or particles of light, to knock electrons free from atoms, generating a flow of electricity. Solar panels actually comprise many, smaller units called photovoltaic cells.

Is the sun hotter than electricity?
The answer to this question is technically yes, although a bolt of lightning is about five times hotter than the surface of the sun.
What is the most used energy resourced?
By far, fossil fuels. Whose primary origin is the sun.
What energy is the source that panels use to make electricity?
Solar panels are used to make electricity. The energy that panels use to make energy therefore is solar energy.
Describe how electricity is made that does not harm the environment?
There are multiple ways electricity can be made and not harm the environment. One example is that you can use wind turbines that capture the wind and use the power for electricity. Another is that you can use solar panels that capture the light and heat from the sun and use that for electricity.
How can geothermal energy help us?
to make electricity
What is the technology at work to produce electricity from the sun?
Solar panels They are panels (any size you want) that make electricity from the light of the sun
How do you make electricity in little alchemy?
Energy+Metal=Electricity or Sun+Solar Cell=Electricity
What can the Sun be used to power?
Anything that takes electricity, essentially. The Sun's power can be harnessed using photovoltaic cells, which then make the energy into electricity.
Can you make electricity without burning fossil fuels?
yeah you can make electricity by using wind, solar (sun) water (waves)
Can solar panels make electricity and heat?
Yes they can. Solar panels convert radiation from the sun into usable electricity. They electricity can then be converted into heat
What SC make electricity using electricity using energy from the sun?
Solar Cells
Can you make electricity from the heat of the sun?
YES! Did you know that the heat of the sun is called solar energy. It's used to produce steam, which can then be turned into electricity. That's real cool!
What are the advantages and disadvantages of producing electricity by photoelectric cells?
The advantage is that it is cheap to produce electricity with the sun. The disadvantage is the "CLOUDS, or no sun. No sun, no electricity.
What does electricity make possible for you?
Electricity is possible for us because without Electricity we wouldn't have... TV, Music/Radios, Phones etc.. and really the "SUN" Gives us electricity by the power and energy it has.
What type of clocks did people make when there was no electricity or wires?
Sun dials and water clocks.
How are solar cars different from gas cars?
solar cars get energy from the sun and transfur it in to electricity gas cars burn gas to make electricity
How do you make a solar cell on little alchemy?
metal + human = tool tool + sun = solar cell sun + solar cell = electricity
