Answer: Yes provided, that its big enough and have good exposure to sunlight, then it can supply charging power to a set of batteries that is connected to an invertor to invert the batteries DC power, to mains AC, preferably a sine wave to drive induction motors and Transformers, a square wave tend to make induction motors noisy and transformers don't work to there full capacity .

Does the angle at which sunlight hits the solar panel affect the amount of energy obtained?

Yes. It gathers the most light energy when perpendicular to the the light source.


Is solar panel a constant current source?

No. A battery is a constant voltage source. Batteries are sold as having a specific voltage (1.2 volts, or 1.5 volts per cell), not a specific current.


Can solar cells used in mobile phones?

No, cell phones draw too much power to be supplied by solar cells, unless you used a large solar panel. But you certainly can't build a solar cell into the back of the phone like you would a solar calculator. For example, one web source says a cell phone draws about 1 W. Another web source says solar panels can put out about 1.2 W for 100 cm2 in bright sunlight. So to power the cell phone you'd need a solar panel at least as large as a CD, probably more like a sheet of paper.

What is the Formula for calculating efficiency of a solar cell?

Efficiency = energy out as electricity / energy in as light At full sun, there is approximately 1000W/m^2 Since your solar cell is not a square meter, you have to scale the answer. Step 1 : Convert the Cell Area (mm sq.) to Meter Square Step 2 : Divide the known wattage by the area M square Example : If it is 156 mm x 156 mm Sq. Cell , then the Area would be : 0.24336 M. Sq Now, if the Wattage is 3.86 Wp , then the efficiency would be 3.86 divided by 0.24336, = 15.86%
