Description:
Most of Montana and Wyoming’s electricity is generated by coal-fired power plants. An alternative is to use the sun’s energy as the fuel to produce electricity. This is accomplished using photovoltaic (PV) technology. The letters PV stand for “Photo” = light and “Voltaics” = electricity. PV technology can potentially be used anywhere the sun shines.
