Solar panels turn sunlight into electricity like a cookie jar turns cookies into treats. Imagine each panel is full of tiny cookie jars that catch the sun’s light, when the sun shines on them, they fill up with energy, and that energy becomes electricity to power your lights or phone! These tiny cookie jars are called photovoltaic cells, and they work by catching sunlight and making it into electric cookies for your house.
Examples
