Solar energy 
Solar power can be generated directly from photovoltaics which convert sunlight to electricity via the photovoltaic effect, or indirectly from concentrated solar power which uses lenses and mirrors to focus sunlight and convert it to heat. Photovoltaic cells directly convert light to electric current. Concentrated solar power uses mirrors to focus sunlight and convert it to heat to drive turbines. Hybrid solar systems store excess solar power in battery banks for use when solar power is unavailable, and can send excess power to the electricity grid depending on utility policies.
Power generation
A power station generates electric power through various energy conversion processes. It consists of an energy source, turbine, and generator. There are different types of power plants classified by their primary fuel source or prime mover. Thermal power plants are the most common type and work by heating water to create steam that spins a turbine connected to a generator. Key components include the boiler, turbines, condenser, and cooling tower. Nuclear power plants are also thermal plants that use nuclear fission to heat water and create steam. Hydropower stations generate electricity from the kinetic energy of flowing or falling water using various methods such as dams, pumped storage, run-of-river, tides, and underground systems.

PV cells convert solar radiation into electricity, with greater intensity of light producing greater electricity flow. Most PV cells are made from silicon, the second most abundant material on earth. A PV system can power homes and businesses, reducing reliance on fossil fuels and producing no harmful emissions. As PV technology advances and production increases, the cost of solar electricity is expected to become competitive with traditional electricity sources in many regions by 2020.
Electricity from the_sun_2010_update_02
Photovoltaic (PV) energy uses cells to convert sunlight directly into electricity. PV cells are typically made from silicon and consist of two layers of semiconductor material. When sunlight shines on the cell, it creates an electric field that causes electricity to flow. PV cells can be assembled into modules and arrays to generate electricity. The electricity can then be used immediately or stored in batteries. Common applications of PV include powering homes, businesses, remote areas not connected to electric grids, and various consumer products.
