The sun is an immense hot sphere. It releases enormous energy into the surrounding space every moment, and this energy is inexhaustible, clean and pollution-free. Always available for free. So today, when pollution becomes severe, people naturally turn their thoughts to the sun. Solar cars are born.
Of course, sunlight doesn't drive the car directly, but sunlight shines on the solar cells. Solar cells convert light energy from the sun into electrical energy, and the electrical energy drives the car's engine. In this sense, solar cars are actually electric cars, but they are different from electric cars. Electric car batteries are charged by the electricity grid, while solar cars use solar cells.
A solar cell is a plate-shaped device that can recreceive light energy from the sun and convert light energy into electrical energy. It is mainly made of polycrystalline silicon panels or monocrystalline silicon panels.
The energy extraction method of solar cars is: low-power solar panels are placed directly on the roof of the car, while high-power solar panels are placed on the roof (like the roof of a car). garage).
The electrical energy received by the solar cells placed on the roof of the car directly drives the car forward. When there is sunshine, the electricity generated by the solar cells not only drives the solar car, but also has a surplus, and the remaining electricity can be stored in the car battery. In this way, the driving capacity of solar vehicles can be effectively expanded.
