<P> Solar power is the conversion of energy from sunlight into electricity , either directly using photovoltaics ( PV ) , indirectly using concentrated solar power , or a combination . Concentrated solar power systems use lenses or mirrors and tracking systems to focus a large area of sunlight into a small beam . Photovoltaic cells convert light into an electric current using the photovoltaic effect . </P>
