An Introduction To Solar Energy Panels

Solar power panels are photovoltaic (PV) devices to create power from sun, the greatest source of energy.

Solar energy is harnessed using photovoltaic cells. Groups of photovoltaic cells are called solar modules. There are a selection of products utilizing single crystal solar cells generating 30 to 165 watts of electricity. The modules can be adapted to off-grid or on-grid power generation requirements. The modules provide a 20- to 25-year guarantee.

The modules based on crystalline silicon are among the most efficient available on a commercial basis. The modules are formed by a set of cells wired together and can be found in full packages for residential, commercial, and industrial purposes.

Using solar energy bestows one with as much as a thirty percent tax credit from the federal government. Over that, solar power doesn't release harmful emissions, whereas most other types of power release effluents resulting in global warming, acid rains, and smog. Backup batteries guarantee the unlimited supply of electricity even in the absence of sun.

Solar energy panels may use the sun's energy to heat water for sanitary use at home or for pools and hot tubs. PV panels, on the other hand, convert light into electricity. Most commonly, these panels are put on the roof. The electricity generated by PV panels is transmitted to a battery for storage. Household power needs are drawn from this storage.
