A solar cell is the engine of a solar panel. Solar electricity is generated when the solar cells convert sunlight into electricity. While solar cells are most commonly made of silicon, they can also be made of materials such as organic materials. To understand what is a solar cell, you need to understand how they […]
Most parts of India receive solar radiation of 4 to 7 kWh per sq. metre/day. If even a fraction of this energy is utilised as solar electricity, it can fulfil India’s entire power requirements. A PV solar farm is a large assembly of solar panels which are installed over a large area. They harness solar […]
Batteries are the most expensive part of a solar system. Between appropriately-size battery bank and a battery-based inverter like the Outback Radian, you’re looking...
Finding a solar company is the 1st step to installing a solar system. Solar system installation is a complex task. Therefore, you need to contact experts for quality installation services. The number of DISCOM-empanelled vendors in the country is increasing steadily with the government’s push for installing solar systems. As the number of solar companies […]
An important question in the minds of the maximum customers before solar installation is: What is the solar panel’s lifespan? Generally, a solar panel lasts up to 25 – 30 years after installation. However, with the evolution of technology, the longevity of solar panels is increasing. Before installation of solar panels, you should ask the […]
The manufacturing of solar panels begins with converting sand into solar cells which are ultimately integrated into solar modules. The quality of a solar panel depends on the standard of the EVA sheet, glass, back sheet, solar cells, and the manufacturing equipment used to assemble the module. Though manual manufacturing of solar panels still takes […]
As per the Paris Climate Agreement, the rise in global temperatures must be limited to “well below” 2°C above pre-industrial levels. Preferably, the rise in temperatures must be limited to 1.5°C. According to NITI Aayog’s official website, India’s emissions in 2019 stood at 23,74,330.35 gigagrams of CO2 equivalent and from electricity generation alone, the amount […]
Your solar system will generate maximum electricity when sunlight strikes the panels at maximum intensity. The right solar panel direction and angle ensure sunlight strikes your solar panels at 90°, leading to maximum power absorption. You must check the direction, tilt angle, and azimuth angle for a perfect solar orientation. Here we have clearly detailed […]
Solar panel efficiency is a key yardstick for judging a panel’s ability to convert solar photons into power. The greater the efficiency of a solar panel, the more electricity it will generate per unit of incident light. You must consider efficiency when buying a particular solar panel model. What is Solar Panel Efficiency? Solar panel […]
A correct solar panel design is the precursor to a successful solar system installation. If done right, it can optimise the power output of your solar system. From the capacity of your solar system to the types of solar panels you will use, there are several factors to consider when creating an ideal solar panel […]
