Solar Photovoltaics is the technology that allows light from the sun to be directly converted into electrical current. It takes special materials that can absorb photons of specific energies. Most commonly used is Silicon, but there are many alternatives as will be shown below.
The most common component for use of solar photovoltaic electicity is the module/solar panel. We have a database containing many models and their properties here [[http://www.sunreign.com/panelsindex.php Panel index]].
Inverters turn the output of solar modules into a usable mains current (e.g. 110 AC or 220 AC). They are needed in most installations.

The photovoltaic module is a technology that is easily adapted, almost like a light bulb, as home installed units simply plug into the power outlet. Many goevrnments subsidize the electricity that is generated using thes panels and the number of incentives is likely to increase (for example USA incentives information can be found [[http://www.sunreign.com/index.php?Etype=Financial&Type=Information&Country=USA&State=&Unit=Incentives here]]).
