Solar Energy
Solar PV Panels have become one of the fastest growing renewable energy solution. They have grown massively in popularity over the years. They come in two forms, Monocrystalline and Polycrystalline, each harness the power of the sun to create electricity.
SOLAR ENERGY
How does it work?
A solar photovoltaic (PV) system turns sunlight into electricity, when sunlight hits the solar cells, it creates an electrical current between the solar layers called direct current energy. This current is converted into electricity by the inverter which provides useable electricity fit to power your home.
Solar Panels
Are they worth it?
Whilst every home is different and has unique requirements, it has been proven that solar energy is beneficial to homeowners as well as also being more environmentally friendly. By having solar panels and battery storage installed to your home, you could see massive savings each year on those rising electricity bills. You can also use this as an opportunity to earn more money by selling excess solar energy you generate back to the national grid.
