Solar Power
Frying eggs from 93 million miles awaynow thats power
The sun is an incredibly powerful source of energy. Thats why TVA is using photovoltaic panels to transform solar energy into usable electricity.
When rays of sunshine strike a solar panel, they give some of the electrons inside it more energy, a process that creates an electrical current.
How much power are we generating? Check the data on daily power output at TVA's solar generating sites. (If you don't see yesterday’s data, reload the page while holding down the Shift key.)
