Solar cell production line. Photovoltaic cells (dark squares) on a production line, entering a furnace as part of the manufacturing process. These photovoltaic cells will be used in solar panels. The cells are made from silicon, a semiconductor material that can absorb energy from sunlight and convert it into an electrical current. This manufacturing facility, operated by the solar panel company SCHOTT Solar Incorporated, is located in Billerica, Massachusetts, USA.
