Principles The electrical energy by a photovoltaic panel varies according to the sunshine. However, charging a battery requires an electrical voltage adapted to this battery. It is therefore not possible to directly connect a solar panel to a battery. The panel is connected via a solar charge controller whose role is to adapt and limit […]
