Fysik - Photovoltaics
THE VISIT WILL BE HELD IN ENGLISH OR DANISH
Kort beskrivelse af aktiviteten: Photovoltaic (PV) cells are solar cells used for converting the sunshine into electrical energy. With 900MW of PV installations in Denmark, producing around 800,000 MWh of energy during 2017. An average household uses 4MWh of energy during a year, therefore it can be said that 200,000 families were supplied by solar energy. A total of 3,400 MW is expected to be installed by 2030, taking a huge step towards a fossil free Danish energy supply by 2050.
