Here are a couple of that I selected out. How Do Solar Panels Work? is a TED-Ed lesson that covers the fundamentals of what solar panels are made of and how electrical energy is produced from them. The video likewise looks into some of the social and political barriers to photovoltaic panel setup and solar range developments.
