Electricity generated by conversion of sunlight.

Typically a solar electric system consists of photovoltaic panels made up of multiple cells, and inverters to convert from DC (from cells) to AC (for house). Can also (but does not always) incorporate batteries, controllers, trackers, and racks.

This category is for manufacturers, suppliers, distributors and service providers of solar electric products.


Components

This category is mainly for manufacturers and wholesale distributors of solar electric systems and component parts, such as inverters, charge controls, mounts, and similar parts. Solar panel and manufacturers and PV cell/panel production equipment manufacturers should submit under the related category Business: Energy and Environment: Renewable: Solar: Electric: Photovoltaic Panels.
This category includes manufacturers, wholesale suppliers, and distributors of the component parts of a solar electric system. Typically it will include PV panels, inverters, controllers, batteries, trackers, and racks.

Consumer Items, Gadgets and Toys

This category includes manufacturers, wholesale distributors, and retailers of consumer PV items that generally are not used in systems, such as solar flashlights, small battery chargers, yard lights, and solar toys, gadgets, doodads, and other unclassified stuff.

Photovoltaic Panels

Sites listed here will represent companies which manufacture or distribute photovoltaic panels, modules and cells, or their components.

Companies which only provide installation services will be listed in the appropriate Regional category.

A device used to convert light from the sun directly into DC electricity by using the photovoltaic effect. Usually made of multiple silicon solar cells bonded between glass and a backing material
