 Brief Overview of Solar PV
Technology
Solar cells are made of silicon
(microelectronics/semiconductors)
Treated to be positive on one side and
negative on the other.

When light energy hits the cell,

electrons are knocked loose from the
atoms in the semiconductor material.

If electrical conductors are attached to

the positive and negative sides, forming
an electrical circuit, the electrons can be
captured in the form of an electric
current.

vThe Union Government announced the Jawaharlal Nehru National
Solar Mission, aiming to make India a global leader in solar energy.
The mission envisages an installed solar generation capacity of
20,000 MW by 2020, of 100,000 MW by 2030 and of 200,000 MW
by 2050.
v
vTotal funding from the government for the 30-year period will be
approximately Rs850 billion to Rs1,050 billion ,which includes :
