How do solar cells work? Photovoltaic cells explained
PV cells, or solar cells, generate electricity by absorbing sunlight and using the light energy to create an electrical current. The process of how PV cells work can be broken down into three basic steps: first, a PV cell absorbs light and knocks electrons loose. Then, an electric current is created by the loose-flowing electrons.

Mechanical Energy Storage | SpringerLink
6.1 Introduction. There are two basic types of energy storage that result from the application of forces upon materials systems. One of these involves changes in potential energy, and the other involves changes in the motion of mass, and thus kinetic energy. This chapter focuses upon the major types of potential energy and kinetic energy storage.
