You take your car to get serviced each year. Should you also have someone inspect your solar panel system each year? What are the requirements for solar panel maintenance? Frequency of solar panel inspections Do you need to clean your solar panels? Regular vs Reactive Maintenance What do Solar Panel Warranties cover? Can solar panels…
The Sun emits enough power onto Earth each second to satisfy the entire human energy demand for over two hours. Solar Cells: Costs, Challenges, and Design Figure 1: Costs associated with solar power. Solar cells become less expensive when the cost of the labor and materials use to build them go down, or when they…
Keeping our world green means taking active measures to reduce or eliminate fossil fuels and other non-renewable resources. Solar is an Affordable Way to Help Our Environment Rooftop Solar Reduces Greenhouse Gas and CO2 Emissions Empowering Electric Vehicles Trilect Solar Can Help You Save Money and the Planet
What seemed like a pipe dream to many has now become a reality. Solar systems are now mainstream, with a lot of people having installed them in their homes already. How Does Solar Work? What Does a Home That’s Suitable for Solar Energy Look Like? How Much Can You Save by Switching? How does Switching…
Solar panel efficiency is a measure of the amount of sunlight (irradiation) that falls on the surface of a solar panel and is converted into electricity. Cell Efficiency Panel Efficiency Why Efficiency Matters Faster Payback Efficiency elements Area Vs Efficiency Cost Vs Efficiency Panel Size Vs Efficiency Most Efficient Solar Cells Efficiency of different solar…
Huawei Technologies New Zealand is preparing to launch a range of smart solar power products aimed at residential and commercial customers.
Renewable energy is something that the world is striving for since our non-renewable energy resources are diminishing quickly. Solar energy is very expensive Solar power isn’t even that green Solar systems demand a lot of upkeep Solar panels won’t generate energy on cloudy days and during the winter
PERC technology is not a new technology, having been invented in 1983 by Australian scientist Martin Green and his team at the University of New South Wales. But commercially-available PV modules built using PERC solar cell technology are relatively new but started to receive attention for their efficient performance recently. Why PERC is a good…
The push for renewable energy sources has led to a surge in solar energy use. In the past decade alone, the solar industry grew significantly with strong commercial and industrial demand for clean energy. As the solar sector continues to rise, it’s worth studying the backbone of the solar industry: solar panels. This guide will…
PERC solar modules are growing in the market, but what is PERC cell technology and what are its advantages? To better understand PERC cell technology’s importance, let’s first review some common inefficiencies found in standard silicon solar panels. A standard solar panel cell contains two layers of silicon, commonly called “n-type” and “p-type” for their…
