Solar radiation may be converted directly into solar power (electricity) by solar cells, or photovoltaic cells. In such cells, a small electric voltage is generated when light strikes the junction between a metal and a semiconductor (such as silicon) or the junction between two different semiconductors.

It is provided by the World Bank Group as a free service to governments, developers and the general public, and allows users to quickly obtain data and carry out a simple electricity output calculation. The Global Solar Power Tracker is composed of worldwide facility-level data on utility-scale (1 MW+) solar photovoltaic (PV) and solar thermal facilities, as well as country-aggregated distributed (<1 MW) solar PV data. When assessing a renewable electricity site and creating a list of possible project locations, consider the types of project options available and the site elements they would require.

Solar power, also known as solar electricity, is the conversion of energy from sunlight into electricity, either directly using photovoltaics (PV) or indirectly using concentrated solar power. It is an essential source of Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) systems use lenses or mirrors and tracking systems to focus a large area of sunlight into a small beam. Sunlight has influenced building design since the beginning of architectural history. Advanced solar architecture and urban planning methods were first employed by the Development of a solar-powered car has been an engineering goal since the 1980s. Solar thermal technologies can be used for water heating, space heating, space cooling and process heat generation.
