Know the Working Process of Solar Roof Technology in Car.

The solar roof system holds the structure of silicon solar panels that are contoured on the car’s roof surface. The solar panel gets charge even while driving the car and can charge up to 30 to 60 percent battery per day.

It is a joint fitting of solar panel and controller. Electricity is generated when solar energy activates solar panel’s facet. Later this energy converts by using photons of light from the sun. Further electron-hole pairs are created in silicon cells which generates solar electricity.

Now the electricity is converted into the standard voltage by the controller and after this stored in the battery.
