Photovoltaic devices use semiconducting
materials to convert sunlight directly into electricity. Solar radiation, which
is nearly constant outside the Earth's atmosphere, varies with changing atmospheric
conditions (clouds and dust) and the changing position of the Earth relative to
the sun. Nevertheless, almost all U.S. regions have useful solar resources that
can be accessed.
