1
Solar Array Provide the energy needed to power the theatre with solar and wind power LEDs need less energy therefore it is more cost effective to use solar panels plan on providing 70% of the energy used through solar cells
2
Electricity Flow of electrons Current-measure of flow (in Amps)
Voltage- work/charge Power= volts X amps
3
Silicon Silicon is a semi-conductor
Silicon forms a very stable crystalline structure Must be “doped” to form solar cells Boron and Phosphorous
4
P-N type P-type silicon is positive type, doped with boron (one less electron) N-type silicon is negative type, doped with phosphorus (one more electron)
5
How It Works Layers of P and N type silicon
Photons are absorbed by semi-conductors Electrons are “knocked loose” from their atoms and move through the solar cell
6
Silicon Solar Cells Two basic types Mono-crystalline Poly-crystalline
7
Possible Solar Panel Plot for Heather Hall Roof
