Power Systems
Current Breakthroughs in Home Solar System Efficiency
Many homeowners can save a lot of money each year by using a solar power system to reduce or eliminate their electricity bill. They will never again have to worry about another electric bill if they install a properly sized solar panel array. Even though these systems are fairly easy to install, there are a few problems that homeowners can encounter that may prevent them from seeing the maximum return on their investments. However, many of these issues can be overcome with recent innovations and improvements in solar technology. You can make use of these developments whether you’re purchasing solar panels or making a Do It Yourself solar panel.
Their home’s orientation to the sun is probably the largest concern for most homeowners. Homes must have a side that faces south in order for solar panels to operator at peak efficiency. As the sun travels across the sky, a southern exposure ensures that the solar panels get a good amount of sun through the day. In years past, this was a major concern as the older panels had a very specific need for constant sun exposure. If their positioning was even a little bit off, it could have a major impact on the amount of power they could generate
Modern solar panels solve this problem by using more efficient solar cells in their construction. Besides producing more electricity with similar amount of sunlight, these newer solar cells can also tolerate a more severe angle relative to the sun. Many locations that were not good choices for solar power before can now be used because of this wider tolerance. So, these newer solar cells are ideal for installations there is less than perfect alignment. During periods of diminished sunlight, like on cloudy days, these newer solar panels will produce more electricity than older ones, in addition to these situations that are out of traditional alignment. These newer panels don’t have to be rotated during the data to point directly at the sun. This makes them well suited to a homebuilt solar panel install.
This is a vast improvement over older cells that required a strong consistent amount of sunlight to produce power. Because of this limitation they were inactive in the early morning and late afternoon hours when the sun was rising and setting. There is sunlight at these times, but not enough to cross the threshold these older panels need to produce power. Newer panels will produce power proportional to the amount of sun even during these periods of lower amounts of sunlight. These panels produce maximum electricity when the sun is at peak, but can generate power in proportion to the amount of sunlight, as long as some light is striking the panels. Because they are able to produce more power for a longer time each day, these newer solar panels can produce more total power each year. The additional power this will provide can add significant savings and allow the homeowner to justify a solar power system for their home.
Among the many ways to increase the resale value of your home, a solar power system is one of the best. Whether the system can provide all the power needs of your house, or simply supplements power from the electric company, any solar power system is sure to significantly increase your home’s value. A simple diy solar charger will get you started in the right direction.
