Are you considering installing solar panels but have concerns about the installation procedure? To make the procedure even simpler, Ashfar Power has compiled the most frequently asked questions about solar installation and the associated answers.
How does solar work?
While there are many other types of solar technologies, the three most common ones are photovoltaics (PV), solar heating and cooling (SHC), and concentrated solar power (CSP) (CSP). Contrary to CSP, which is exclusively employed in big utility-scale power facilities, solar heating and cooling systems are often built on residential or business sites. PV technology can be used for distributed generation on buildings such as residences and offices as well as utility-scale applications.
While CSP and SHC technologies use the sun's thermal (heat) energy to raise the temperature of water and air, PV panels use sunlight to generate electricity directly. Without any moving parts, PV panels convert the direct current (DC) power they generate into usable alternating current (AC) power using an inverter. The air in buildings can be heated or cooled using SHC technologies, which are frequently used to heat water for home or commercial purposes.
The majority of concentrating solar power systems generate energy on a large scale by using concentrated sunlight to power a conventional steam turbine.
Can I install solar on an old roof?
Ashfar Power have well trained team who are stillful in working with all kinds of roofs with minimal impact on your facility.
What happens to solar panels when it rains or is cloudy?
Although they can produce energy from either direct or indirect sunlight, solar panels work best in direct light. Even when the light is deflected or partially covered by clouds, solar panels will continue to function. Rain actually aids in maintaining the effectiveness of your solar panels by removing any dust or grime. The excess energy your solar panels produce during the day will be used to offset the energy you consume at night and other times when your system isn't working to its full potential.
Would it make sense to go solar if we use most our energy at night?
