The cells that harness the sun's energy for electricity are called solar cells, or photovoltaic cells. These cells convert sunlight directly into electricity through the photovoltaic effect.
Electric generator. May be a dynamor or a cell.
The instrument in solar panels that converts light energy to electrical energy is called a photovoltaic cell, also known as a solar cell. This cell is made of semiconductor materials that absorb photons of light and generate an electric current through the photovoltaic effect.
Photovoltaic energy is the conversion of sunlight into electricity. A photovoltaic cell, commonly called a solar cell or PV, is the technology used to convert solar energy directly into electrical power. A photovoltaic cell is a nonmechanical device usually made from silicon alloys. When light strikes these silicon alloys, it frees electrons which can be collected onto attached conductive plates.
This would be called a photocell.
A solar cell is not an energy source, but an energy converter. In the case of solar, the energy source is light, and the solar cell converts it from light energy to electrical energy.
yea its a new discovered thing called electricity
Energy+Metal=Electricity or Sun+Solar Cell=Electricity
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.
Electric generator. May be a dynamor or a cell.
Chemical energy
The solar cell coverts the sun light into energy/electricity
A galvanic cell is an electric cell that generates an electromotive force by an irreversible conversion of chemical to electrical energy.
A solar cell, also known as a photovoltaic cell, is a device that converts sunlight into electricity through a process called the photovoltaic effect. When sunlight hits the solar cell, it excites electrons in the cell, which creates an electric current. This electricity can be used to power various devices or stored in batteries for later use.

These are called "thermocouples".http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermocouple
Generator that utilizes Hydrogen is called "Fuel Cell" it is an Electrochemical Energy Conversion Device that converts the chemicals Hydrogen and Oxygen into Water and during this process the Electricity is generated.
