SOLAR TECHNOLOGY

Components required in a solar installation? Ex. Solar Panel, Solar

Inverters

The four major components of a solar energy system are the panels,
inverter(s), racking and solar battery storage unit(s) (if desired).

What are the steps in the solar installation?

5 Steps for Solar Panel Installation

1. Complete a Site Survey With an Engineer.
2. Secure the Right Permits.
3. Order the Right Equipment.
4. Get Your Solar Panels Installed.
5. Get your system approved and connected.

Cost of a solar installation?

Average cost: $9,255 - $28,000

Residential solar panels are usually sized at 3kW to 8kW and can cost
anywhere from $9,255 and $28,000 in total installation costs.
Where to procure the products from?

Home and business owners typically purchase solar panels through solar
companies, which are certified to deal and install products from top
manufacturers. These solar installers then plan and execute the installation.
However, solar panels and solar panel kits are also sold directly from
distributors in the event you’re qualified to carry out your own DIY solar
installation.

Which location on the site and also on the geography do solar installations
work best?

In the northern hemisphere, the general rule for solar panel placement is,
solar panels should face true south (and in the southern, true north). Usually
this is the best direction because solar panels will receive direct light
throughout the day. the placement and orientation of solar panels is just as
important as which type of solar panel is used in a given situation. A solar
panel will harness the most power when the Sun's rays hit its surface
perpendicularly. Ensuring that solar panels face the correct direction and
have an appropriate tilt will help ensure that they produce maximum energy
as they are exposed to the highest intensity of sunlight for the greatest
period of time.
