Abstract: Our goal is to develop PG cells that convert and store solar energy with improved electrical output. To achieve this, the electrical observations were examined in an H-shaped PG cell system using various solutions of CTAB surfactant, D-arabinose, and Malachite Green (M.G.) and Toluidine Blue (T.B.). Distilled water was used to prepare various solutions, including dye, reductants, and surfactants. At a light intensity of 10.4 mWcm-2, measurements of photopotential, photocurrent, power, fill factor, conversion efficiency, and cell performance (t1/2) have been performed. 294.0 mV, 34.00 μA, 9.996 µW, 0.0918 and 0.03591%, and 85 minutes are the corresponding electrical values. Significant electrical results of developed PG cells were noted in this study, i.e., cell performance, conversion efficiency, and storage capacity. This research work is a novel application of PG cells for solar energy conversion and storage, with a focus on improved cell performance.
