In recent years, due to the rapid depletion of fossil fuels there is a search for environmental amiable materials following the green chemistry route. Solar cell research has undergone a tremendous development from photovoltaic cell to Dye sensitized solar cell. These cells as described in the present article are promising energy devices as they provide for a route for simultaneous solar power generation and its storage. The study of photogalvanic cell system composed with Lissamine green - EDTA - Tween 80 system has been studied in alkaline medium at low intense light with aim of searching relatively proper combination of chemicals like photosensitizer, reductant and surfactant for further enhancing the efficiency of the photogalvanic cell. The best conditions for cell have also been observed for optimal cell performance. The solar conversion efficiency, fill factor, cell performance (as t1/2), power at power point, open circuit potential, equilibrium current and charging time at 10.4 mWcm-2 has been observed of the order of 0.94%, 0.1315, 90 minutes, 97.86 mW, 974 mV and 764 mA respectively.
