What Is Solar Power Generation?
This refers to a method of producing energy by converting the energy from the sun into electricity using photovoltaic cell modules, batteries, and conversion devices.

Mechanism of Solar Power Generation
Solar energy is input to generate electrical current
DC power generated in the module is collected and transmitted to the inverter
DC power generated in the solar cells is converted into AC power
Electricity is stored so that the power generated during the day can be used at night
Identifies system status and runs diagnoses for failures and abnormalities
Advantages of Solar Power Generation
Because it uses the light from the sun as the energy source, solar power generation is infinite and clean, and it does not emit pollutants.
It is one of the most promising alternative energy in the world that can prepare humanity for the depletion of fossil fuel.
With shorter construction period, solar energy facilities can quickly respond to increasing demands.
Solar power systems can be installed on structurally sound rooftops of buildings or land zoned for development.
Solar power systems are relatively easier to maintain, and can be operated for approximately 30 years.
Current State of Korean Solar Power Generation
In Korea, Solar power generation capacity grew by 18.2% on annual average since 2010. In 2017, the capacity was 1,214.8MW. In terms of the number of units, it grew by 1.8 times, from 228 in 2010 to 418.
According to “Renewable Energy 2010,” a report published by the Ministry of Trade, Industry, and Energy in 2017, the Korean government plans to increase the proportion of the power generation capacity of renewable power generation facilities to 33.7% (9.4% in 2017), and their overall power generation volume to 20% (6.2% in 2017). As such, solar energy has great growth potential in Korea.
