Solar photovoltaic (PV) cells are panels you can attach to your roof or walls. Each cell is made from one or two layers of semi conducting material, usually silicon. When light shines on the cell it creates an electric field across the layers. The stronger the sunshine and lower the cloud coverage, the more electricity the panels can produce.
