However, technological advances have made it possible to use solar energy at higher altitudes and latitudes using higher-efficiency panels, also referred to as high-altitude photovoltaics. . Photovoltaic (PV) cells, commonly used in solar panels, are able to convert sunlight directly into electricity through a process called the photovoltaic effect. PV panels often get their power from low-lying areas where sunlight intensity is high, like deserts and industrial parks. From the icy ridges of the Swiss Alps to the remote highlands of Tibet, solar technology is proving that altitude can be a strategic asset rather than an. . As a result, solar panels in high - altitude areas can receive more direct sunlight compared to those at lower altitudes. Let's take a look at some numbers.
