Solar photovoltaic cells convert sunlight into electricity, which can be used to run the appliances in your home or business. They only need daylight and still generate some electricity on cloudy days. Known commonly as solar panels, or just PV in the industry, they are the large flat, black glass panels that go on roofs to convert sunlight into electricity. PV cells come in a variety of shapes and colours, from roof and wall mounting panels to grey `solar tiles` that can look like roof slates. There are even panels available with the solar cells spaced apart to allow some sunshine through for conservatory roofing, for example.

Solar thermal systems are large, flat, black panels that you stick on your roof and at first glance look quite similar to solar PV panels - indeed, you can buy designs that look identical aesthetically. Their job is to provide a property with hot water by using the sun`s rays to heat water flowing through pipes on the panel.
