Photovoltaics and our future energy supply
Solar energy is the most abundant energy resource on earth today, providing about 10,000 times more energy per year than we actually use. There is a whole family of solar technologies which can deliver heat, cooling, electricity, lighting, and fuels for a variety of applications. One of these technologies is photovoltaics which converts solar energy directly into electricity using semiconductors which exhibit the photovoltaic effect and are called solar cells.
