It has been speculated that more than enough sunlight strikes the surface of this planet every day to provide the energy necessary for every civilization on Earth. As costs continue to dwindle for production technology, and the outlay for energy continues to rise, it makes sense for this type of application to proliferate. There are a number of ways in which engineers have devised to capture the sun’s rays. One of these is Photovoltaic cells, which is the most common type of solar panel that is being produced today. When sunlight strikes the surface of the panel, it is converted into electricity of the direct current type....
