How do I choose the right solar panel system size for my needs?
Choosing the right solar panel system size depends on your energy consumption, budget, and available roof space. A qualified solar installer will:
Analyze your energy bills
Assess your roof's suitability
Calculate your potential solar energy generation
Recommend a system size that meets your needs and goals.
They will also consider factors like future energy needs (e.g., if you plan to purchase an electric vehicle) and the potential for battery storage.
How do I know if my roof is suitable for solar panels?
A suitable roof for solar panels should have:
Adequate Sunlight: Unobstructed sunlight for a significant portion of the day.
Sufficient Space: Enough space to accommodate the desired number of panels.
Structural Integrity: A strong roof structure capable of supporting the weight of the panels.
Appropriate Orientation and Tilt: Ideally, the roof should face south (in the Northern Hemisphere) or north (in the Southern Hemisphere) with a tilt angle close to the latitude of your location. However, other orientations and tilts can still be effective.
A qualified solar installer can assess your roof during a site visit and determine its suitability for solar.
How do solar panels work?
Solar panels work by converting sunlight into electricity using photovoltaic cells made of silicon. When sunlight hits a solar cell, it creates an electric current. Multiple cells are wired together to form a panel, and multiple panels can be combined to create a solar array.
What is the lifespan of solar panels?
Most solar panels have a lifespan of 25-30 years or more. Even after 25 years, panels will still produce electricity, but their efficiency may gradually decline over time. Reputable manufacturers offer warranties that cover defects in materials and workmanship for a significant portion of the panel's lifespan.
