Why choose solar panels?
In sunny Australia, solar panel systems are rapidly becoming popular due to the many advantages that they offer. It is an ideal choice for practicality purposes. What it basically does is provide converted electricity produced from stored energy from the rays of the sun. And since sunlight is absolutely free of charge, having a solar power system lessens energy consumption by 50 percent. Furthermore, solar panels can also be used to heat floors. Here are more reasons to think of why you should funnel energy from the sun.
A simple mechanism
A solar array doesn't just produce electricity. It can also be modified to be used as a water heating system. All you need is to connect the panel to a boiler that is connected to a main heating system. The solar panel receives heat from the sun. The solar panel would then contain a heat-conducting fluid. This fluid then goes through a heating coil inside the tank containing the water. This heats the water inside the tank, providing the household with warm water. No one needs to monitor the operation; it is all done automatically. Heated water can also be used to a swimming pool or a spa. In general, a compact solar array which may consist of a few solar panels can effectively heat 150 liters of water to a temperature of 50 degrees in just 6 hours of sunlight.\Conceptually, a compact solar array (composed of a handful of solar panels) takes about 6 hours to heat up about 150 litres of water. So you'll have hot water to warm up a cold evening.
Multiple advantages
A solar panel system holds multiple benefits. Here are the most important of them:
- Economical. Each season, solar panels generate a significant amount of energy for your home. The summer season generates the most energy, letting you save as much as 60 percent. It's during the winter that lets you save the least, only as much as 30 percent.
- Nothing gets added to your operating costs. If the solar panels do not present any problem, then there are no additional maintenance costs either.
- There is no need to disassemble the array once it is set up. They are extremely durable and long-lasting, so you don't have to spend money, time, and effort in their maintenance and operation. Regular cleaning and an occasional examination are all that is needed to keep your panels working for a long time.
Eco-friendly. Solar panels represent the cleanest method of producing energy. They stop the release of a CO2 amount equivalent to the emissions of a vehicle travelling for more than 10,000 km/year.
An efficient long-term solution
The solar power accessories is essentially unlimited, and for this reason you can make substantial energy savings for a very long time. What's more, most solar panels are guaranteed to last for at least 20 to 25 years, so your home will benefit from all the comfort they provide throughout this period!
Solar energy can be used anywhere
Solar panels are ideal for locations where electricity is hard to get, such as remote villages. Thus, even communities in mountaintops can enjoy electrical energy. By using the sun to power electrical appliances, you can harness the sun's energy, save power bills, and protect the environment. Solar panels are of great value and represent the future in terms of home heating.
