how is solar energy converted into electrical energy???????
The sun’s waves hit a photovoltaic cell and excites the electrons within layers of the cell. The excited electrons jump back and forth, creating electricity. This electricity is captured by wires running through the PV cells and sends the electricity into your home.
thanks for sharing, if you knew already, why did you ask?

Well I add too !!! This is Q & A
Solar cells have tremendous environmental benefits due to their ability to convert sunlight into electricity. The principal behind solar cells or photovoltaic cells is simple: photons in sunlight hit solar cells and are absorbed by semiconducting materials, such as silicon wafers, and are then converted into electricity. Solar cells are often encapsulated as a module and electrically connected. Manufacturing of solar cells is expensive and must be done on a large scale to minimize costs.
