ABSTRACT
This chapter shows data regarding solar energy availability, and deals specifically with photo-voltaic solar panels to introduce their behavior, modeling techniques, and the areas in which they can be improved. The weather station is a set of sensors of humidity, temperature, and light, to identify the exact conditions at which the solar energy is generated. The sun changes its position as the day goes by, so the incidence of the light rays is not always the same, and to guarantee maximum conversion effectiveness, the reflectors or panels should move optimally. A different way to build reliable solar power plants is to specifically forecast "ideal" zones where the light incidence can be guaranteed for a specific amount of minimum energy capacity. The voltage present at the terminals of the solar cell is actually a consequence of the p-n junction band. The most general classification for solar cells is performed in terms of the nature of the material used in their construction.
