Ma module a dzuwa, omwe amadziwikanso kuti solar panels, amapangidwa ndi ma cell angapo a photovoltaic (PV) omwe amatenga mphamvu ya dzuŵa ndikusandutsa magetsi.Maselowa nthawi zambiri amapangidwa ndi silicon kapena zida zina zopangira semiconducting, ndipo amagwira ntchito potengera ma photon kuchokera ku kuwala kwa dzuwa, komwe kumatulutsa ma elekitironi ndikupanga magetsi.Magetsi opangidwa ndi ma modules a dzuwa ndi mawonekedwe amakono (DC), omwe amatha kusinthidwa kukhala alternating current (AC) pogwiritsa ntchito ma inverters kuti athe kugwiritsidwa ntchito m'nyumba ndi malonda.
