Examinations on elec-tricity production methods and technologies from solar energy were carried out in three stages. In the first stage, a comprehensive scheme was created by examining the methods of electricity production from solar energy in general. In the second stage, the structures and types of photovoltaic cells were examined. In the third stage, concentrated solar energy systems were examined. Finally, electricity production systems from solar energy are compared and the results are presented.}, number={716}, publisher={TMMOB Makina Mühendisleri Odası}
