Solar energy is a substantial renewable energy resource that is produced by the sun's electromagnetic radiation. It is an inexhaustible, nontoxic, and clean energy source. According to studies, solar energy can provide about 1,000 times the energy that is currently being consumed. A solar cell is an electrical device that makes use of the photovoltaic effect to convert light energy directly into electricity. A Dye-Sensitized Solar Cell (DSSC) is a third-generation solar cell that functions due to the interactions between the cell’s anode and cathode. This in addition to the nanoparticles coated with a light-sensitive dye surrounded by an electrolyte completes the structure of a DSSC. This review presents a comprehensive take on the enumerate organic dyes available for purpose of sensitisation of light for DSSC applications. Furthermore, this review also consists of a detailed assessment of the various components utilized to complete the structure of a DSSC along with their functions
