Why Solar Panels?

Solar panels have been a buzzword in sustainable energy for years. Today’s models are sleek and affordable, making solar panels a viable alternative to consider when you’re thinking about how to make your home or business more sustainable and energy efficient. Here’s everything you need to know about how solar panels work.

 

How Solar Energy Is Created

Solar panels consist of a connected set of photovoltaic cells that harness the power of the sun and turn it into electricity. This solar electricity is generated through the photovoltaic effect. This is a phenomenon where electrical energy is created when the solar panel photovoltaic cells are exposed to sunlight. Energy can also be produced through thermal solar technology which uses sunlight to heat water or air. Most solar models can produce energy from a range of light frequencies.

Solar panel technology is constantly evolving to improve efficiency even more. Today’s high efficiency solar panels are an exciting new way of introducing a solar energy system to your home or business. A common place to install solar panels at a home or business is on the roof where they receive adequate sun exposure.

 

Why You Should Consider Solar Energy

Solar energy is a great way to go green and save money on electric utility bills. Rooftop solar panels are durably made and built to withstand all kinds of weather conditions, including fierce hail and snowstorms. Solar panels also require very little maintenance once the solar installation is complete. What’s more, the price of solar energy continues to fall. It’s cheaper than ever to choose solar.
