Solar Energy

What is a Solar panel:

Solar panels are a combination of substances that produce an electric current when exposed to light. These panels use the sun’s rays as energy sources and then convert this energy into direct current. The panels are tested under various standard test conditions to know about the output produced from these panels and may vary from each other. The type of solar panels now available in the market uses advanced film cells, which help create high conversion efficiency from the same solar power captured from the sun. Solar panel’s efficiency of convert thing the heat into electricity is typically around the 20% range. Still, it can be reduced by settling dust particles present in the air, then its efficiency decreases. If a solar panel is not maintained, then deficiency of that solar panel can decrease up to 30% according to the conversion it was already providing. 

While opting for a Solar panel, the cost which is to be incurred initially may look like it’s too high of investment. Still, when it comes to returns, it helps in decreasing the electricity consumption which the households take it. It is a sustainable way of using the natural resources available in the environment and health in a sustainable living form. The end investment in the solar panel is more of an economic decision taken by people as it helps in energy-efficient usage. It will also be beneficial for the coming generations as they will be introduced to such technologies, and energy-storing also becomes easy with the help of solar panels.

Solar panels can also be used for a wide variety of application areas, including implementation in remote power systems where electricity cannot be supplied quickly, can be used in residential areas for the production of daily use electricity, can also be used in commercial areas where electricity consumption is relatively high, and this can help in the saving of that electricity and also help in the reduction of cost which the company incurs in the long run.

How do solar panels work?

Solar panels are used in collecting renewable energy, which comes from sunlight, and then it is converted into electricity provided for various electrical purposes. The panel consists of different individual and separate solar cells made with a layer of silicon and phosphorus, which helps absorb light, also known as photons, which create or initiate electrical current, which results in the generation of electricity. When the light strikes the panels, the solar cells generate an electric field, converting this light into a current. In an average household, with the help of solar panels, a lot of electricity can be created within a day which can also be used for the electrical consumption by the family at night, which leads to economic balance for the households and the industrial areas.

Some of the solar panels work by storing electricity in the form of a battery, which is purchased why the customer, which is also known as the off-grid solar system. This increase is the initial cost for the individual; still, according to the need and usage, the battery stores the electricity which is produced by the solar panels for the future. In other cases, the electricity which is produced by the solar panels to out the day in excess is sent to the company with which the customer has a tire up which therefore results in Netmeter balancing at the end of the financial year, and this decreases the cost for the customer over the long period as it does not require the purchase of an additional unit which is the battery for the storage of the energy produced by the panels.
