What is solar energy?Solar energy is derived from the sun's radiation and is converted into electricity or used for heating purposes. Solar panels capture sunlight and convert it into usable energy for homes, businesses, and other applications.
-
How do solar panels work?Solar panels, also known as photovoltaic (PV) panels, contain solar cells that absorb sunlight. When photons from the sunlight strike the solar cells, they generate direct current (DC) electricity, which is then converted into usable alternating current (AC) electricity by an inverter.
-
What are the benefits of going solar?Going solar offers numerous benefits, including reduced electricity bills, lower carbon footprint, increased property value, energy independence, and contributing to a cleaner environment. Remember, every solar installation may have unique considerations, so it's essential to consult to address specific questions and assess the best solar solution for your needs.
-
How long do solar panels last?At Ensky Solar, we offer high-quality solar panels that are designed to last for decades. On average, our solar panels have a lifespan of 25-30 years. With proper maintenance and care, they can continue to generate electricity for even longer. Our team is dedicated to providing not only reliable solar panels but also ongoing maintenance and support to ensure optimal performance and longevity.
-
Do solar panels work on cloudy days or in cold climates?Solar panels can still generate electricity on cloudy days, though their efficiency may be reduced. They also work in cold climates, and solar technology is designed to perform well in a range of weather conditions.
-
Is it possible to go completely off-grid with solar energy?Yes, it is possible to go off-grid by combining solar panels with energy storage solutions, like batteries. This allows you to store excess electricity for use during times when the sun isn't shining.
-
What is net metering, and how does it work?Net metering is a billing arrangement where excess electricity generated by your solar system is fed back into the grid, and you receive credits for it. These credits offset your electricity consumption during times when your solar panels aren't producing enough power.
-
Do solar panels require maintenance?Solar panels generally require minimal maintenance. Periodic cleaning and inspections can help ensure they operate efficiently and produce the maximum amount of energy.
