| dc.description.abstract | Decarbonization has gained global importance in order to reduce climate change that is mainly caused by the usage of fossil fuels. Renewable energy sources have the potential to reduce carbon emissions. For this purpose, the energy sector has focused on cost-competitive solar panel technologies in recent years. Solar panels are systems made of semiconductor materials that convert the solar radiation coming to their surfaces into electrical energy. The fact that solar energy is an inexhaustible resource and is free in abundance is shown as the most economical system compared to traditional energy sources. Solar energy has an important share when considering the electricity obtained from renewable energy sources in the last decade. In addition, when the efficiency of PV technologies increases and their costs decrease, the use of these systems will become more widespread. Since it provides sustainable production and reduces CO2 emissions, solar panels can play an important role in meeting the national energy need. In this chapter, the history of solar panels, semiconductor materials, solar cells, PV technologies, the global energy situation, and their place in renewable energy sources are shown in the overview. © 2023 Elsevier Inc.
