Photovoltaic panels are constant current sources

Photovoltaic panels are constant current sources

Solar panels produce a variable current depending on the SUNs “shine power” and the voltage does tend to stay the same regardless of the “shine power”. . I have heard many times that solar panels are "constant current" sources. In my limited understanding, I would've assumed that changes in all of these conditions. . I'm reading about PV behaviour and am confused on whether a PV panel/cell would be considered to be a voltage source or current source or both or neither (from the characteristic IV curve). Voltage is like water pressure in a pipe. Some PV cells can convert artificial light into electricity.
