"220 volts" is not a quantity of energy. You can have a hundred 220-volt outlets
sitting there in the walls of your house all day, and never use any energy. You only
use energy when something is plugged into that outlet, turned on, and draws current
from the outlet.
If you have some sort of device connected to a 220-volt source, and your device
is turned on and drawing 1 Ampere of current, then it's using 220 joules of energy
every second. It makes no difference whether those joules of energy come from
solar cells on the roof, from the electric company burning coal, from a different
electrical company that operates a nuclear station, or from an electric generator
coupled to your hamster's treadmill.

Evaporation uses solar energy and converts water to a gas. Thermal energy of sun is used.
One million electron volts (1 MeV) is equal to the amount of energy gained by an electron when accelerated through a potential difference of one million volts. This unit is commonly used in particle physics to express the energy of particles.
Photovoltaic cells, commonly known as solar cells, are the most commonly used type of cell to convert solar energy into electricity. These cells absorb sunlight and generate direct current (DC) electricity through the photoelectric effect.

A solar power plant mainly produces energy, not consumes it, but a small amount of energy is used during its construction and operation. This includes the manufacturing of solar panels, inverters, metal frames, and other parts. Energy is also used for transportation, installation, and setting up the entire system. Once the solar power plant starts working, it uses very little energy to keep running. Companies like SunBeam Energy Systems, EcoRay Renewables, Surya Solar Solution, and BrightFuture Solar Tech work in this field to design and install solar power systems. These names are mentioned only as examples of organizations that provide solar energy solutions, not for promotional purposes. During the construction phase, most of the energy goes into making the panels and components — this is known as embodied energy. However, after the system starts producing electricity, it quickly recovers that energy. Usually, a solar power plant generates enough power in 1 to 3 years to make up for the energy used during its setup. After that, all the energy it produces is clean and renewable. Once operational, the energy used is very low — just enough for monitoring systems, occasional cleaning (especially dust removal on panels), and small maintenance work. For example, a 1-megawatt (MW) solar power plant can produce around 1.5 to 1.8 million units (kWh) of electricity per year, while the energy it consumes for maintenance is less than 1% of what it generates. In simple words, a solar power plant requires some energy to build but very little to operate. It produces much more energy over its lifetime than it ever uses, making it one of the most efficient and environment-friendly power sources in the world.

Solar energy is a reusable/inexhaustible resource which means it can be used as much as you want without running out of the resource.
