We would like once again to remind that term ‘solar’ could be somewhat confusing because it’s also used for solar-thermal collectors used in solar water heating systems. In this article ‘solar’ is only used with the same meaning as ‘photovoltaic’. Photovoltaic … [Read More...] about What Are Solar Panels Made Of- How Do Solar Panels Work

Solar Power Systems For Your Home Or Business

   Solar electric (photovoltaic) systems generate electricity from solar energy. The solar generated electricity can be used in your home/office and/or exported to the utility grid. Therefore solar power systems are divided in two main types – connected to the grid, or ‘grid-tied’, and disconnected to the grid, also known as ‘off-grid’. The main components of grid-tied solar power systems are solar panels and inverter. Grid-tied systems only operate when utility grid is on. In case of … [Read More...] about Solar Power Systems For Your Home Or Business
