Increasing intensity of sun rays will lead to higher power output from the solar cell and solar panel due to more photons hitting the surface and generating electricity. However, this can also cause the solar cell to heat up, potentially reducing its efficiency. It is important for solar panels to be designed with temperature management systems to ensure optimal performance.

Solar fresnel lenses can be used to concentrate sunlight onto a smaller area, increasing the intensity of the light and therefore the efficiency of solar energy collection. By focusing the sunlight onto a smaller solar panel, more energy can be captured and converted into electricity.
A solar panel is a device that absorbs the Sun's radiant energy and converts it into electricity through a photoelectric effect.
A solar panel is a device that converts solar energy from the sun into electricity through the photovoltaic effect.
A Fresnel lens can enhance the efficiency of a solar panel by concentrating sunlight onto a smaller area, increasing the amount of light that reaches the solar cells. This helps to generate more electricity from the same amount of sunlight, improving the overall performance of the solar panel.
The intensity of radiation is directly proportional to the number of photons hitting the material surface, increasing the likelihood of photoelectric effect occurrence. Higher intensity light means more photons, which can result in more photoelectrons being emitted from the material.
