How Much Can You Save by Installing Solar Panels and Using them to Power Your House


If you are going to install the grid connected system without battery you will have number of benefits as mentioned below:

  • As it don’t require any battery, the little maintenance is required. 
  • The cost of grid connected solar system is less as compare to off grid system
  • It has designed life of about 25 years

Now the saving is depend on your existing electricity rates and the cost of solar system. Usually for a house the payback period is around the 3 to 5 years. So after that you will have your own electricity at free of cost

How Does Solar Energy Play An Important Role In Protecting The Environment?

Image
  Solar energy is one of the easily available sources of energy that can be accessed from anywhere. With the latest development, there are various methods and techniques to harness solar energy and convert it into another form of energy like thermal energy, electrical energy, light energy. Using solar photovoltaic cells to capture the incident solar energy and produce the required form of energy is one of the common methods of harnessing solar energy. It can be used for a variety of uses like generating electricity, heating water, comfortable interior environment, providing light, etc. The solar power system consists of a few basic components like solar collectors that absorbs the incident solar energy, battery-related components to store the produced energy, mounting structure that carries the load of the entire system. Solar energy is the cleanest and most abundant renewable source of energy that is easily available everywhere hence there are no geographical limitations to utili...

Is a solar hot water system cheap

Image
  The solar hot water system , also known as the solar thermal system, is an excellent and efficient energy system that can be used to generate power to heat water. These thermal panels directly use sunlight or heat from the sun to heat water and are cheaper than PV panels. With solar systems, you can save a lot on utility bills and fuel consumption. However, if you go with a general review by users, the solar photovoltaic system is considered a bit more efficient than the thermal water heating system. Even if they are not cheap initially, you can save a lot on utility bills once their installation is done.  The system uses photovoltaic panels to absorb sunlight and store it in electricity, which is further used to power several devices, including heating water. Photovoltaics make it easier to absorb the sunlight than the thermal system.
