How much do you know about Photovoltaic (PV) Systems?

• A photovoltaic (PV) system generates solar power using solar panels and an inverter.
• It includes mounting, cabling, and other electrical accessories to set up a working system.
• PV systems convert light directly into electricity.
• They are not the same as concentrated solar power or solar thermal systems.
• PV systems range from small rooftop systems to large utility-scale power stations.
• Most PV systems are grid-connected.
• They operate silently and without any moving parts or environmental emissions.
• A rooftop system recoups its energy investment within 0.7 to 2 years.
• A rooftop system produces about 95% of net clean renewable energy over a 30-year service lifetime.
• PV systems are a mature technology used for mainstream electricity generation.
