How do you store energy using a solar panel?
Question:
Answer:
Solar panel is not a energy storing device, rather it converts light energy to electrical energy and this energy either can directly used to run instruments or can be fed to battery for storing.
The working of the solar panel is like the inverse action of a LED, i.e. a LED converts electrical energy in to light where as a solar panel converts light energy in to electrical energy, basically it is a P-N junction diode.
Batteries my man... but you will need a charge controller the silicon panel will produce dc and you will need an inverter for an ac light
Rechargable Battaries. You can get a wide range of them- which one you should use is depends on the capacity of your solar panel.
probably a deep discharge lead calcium batteries, with a switching regulator cycloconverter or cycloinverter output to match the current and voltage requirements of the operated device.
