"We Make It Easy To Be Green"
Thinking about the benefits of installing a solar power system on your home can be a game-changer in so many ways. First off, it's a green move that's not only good for your wallet but also for Mother Earth. By harnessing the power of the sun, you're reducing your carbon footprint and doing your part in the fight against climate change. Plus, it feels great to know that you're using clean, renewable energy to power your home.
Another perk is the savings that come with solar panels. While the initial investment may seem hefty, it pays off in the long run. With solar, you can potentially slash your electricity bills, and in some cases, even sell excess energy back to the grid. It's like having your own little money-making sunshine factory on your rooftop.
Let's not forget about the added value to your home. Installing solar panels can increase your property's resale value, making it more attractive to potential buyers. So, not only are you reaping the benefits now, but you're also setting yourself up for a brighter, more sustainable future. Installing solar power is a win-win that keeps on giving!
For any installation, the optimum location for the solar panels would be on the south / southwest side of the roof or property. Although direct sunlight is not necessary for the panel to generate solar power, direct sunlight creates the highest form of power, which means that anything, such as trees or tall buildings that prevent direct sunlight from hitting the panels, will significantly affect the panels ability to provide its optimum output power.
One drawback with solar power as you go further north, is snow cover and short winter daylight hours. Solar panels that are installed on a home's roof will not be readily accessible for removing snowfall. This means the snow will have to melt on its own in order for the panels to resume creating power. Since sunlight can penetrate a few inches of snow, you still may get some minor power output, plus the sun's infrared light may also heat the panels slightly, accelerating the melting of the snow cover.
Ideally, you would mount the panels at ground level on racks that pivot to track the sun and that are at least two feet above anticipated slow levels for your area. This option does require you to have land and that the view to the south and west is somewhat unobstructed by trees or buildings, but it would provide the optimal solution for obtaining the highest level of performance from your solar power system.
Overall, you simply can't lose when you choose to install a solar power system. If you engineer the job properly and install the panels in a way where they will have the optimum exposure to the sun, you will generate your own power, while helping to reduce the worlds carbon footprint. If we could step 50 years into the future, it's very likely that we would see solar panels or solar roofing shingles being used exclusively on all new home construction and retrofitted on most existing homes. Solar power used to be a science fiction idea, then a NASA method of powering satellites, then an expensive toy for the rich and now, now it's a reasonably affordable alternative to generate power from an unlimited and totally green source.
The Premium Kit will produce an average of 1.6-2.5kWh of electricity per day. By bypassing the shaded cells with poor performance, the bypass diode minimizes the power drop caused by the shadow to ensure excellent performance in a low-light environment.
