How do photovoltaic panels emit light and heat
Solar panels convert sunlight into electricity through the photovoltaic effect. Photons from sunlight hit silicon cells inside the panel, knock electrons free from their atoms, and an electric field pushes those electrons through a circuit — that flow of electrons is electricity.
