As each year passes people are increasingly moving away from fossil fuel and nuclear energy and are instead embracing options like solar and wind. With solar panel manufacturing and installation becoming more widespread; the associated decrease in cost means even the average consumers can become more eco-friendly.
Studies have shown that the cost for solar energy is quickly dropping and by 2016 it will be even cheaper to invest in solar power than to constantly pay monthly electric bills on the grid. This shift in consumer preference with the aid of government-funded schemes mean that grid parity is in the near future.
Solar panel easy installation guide
Renewable energy is widely regarded as the global way forward so for those people hoping to make the switch to a home solar panel system, here are several things to keep in mind.
First there is a consultation over the phone. The representative will discuss the needs of the client over the phone and go over basic details such as location and finances. This will help determine the best solar panel solution for the client.
This is then usually followed by a visit from one of the installation experts. They will visit the home of the client and inspect how the photovoltaic solar panels are to be installed; whether the house should stay connected to the grid or if it can rely solely on solar panels and batteries, and more.
Last is the installation period. The installation team will manufacture and install the photovoltaic solar panels on the roof, install the necessary wiring, and place the inverter to convert DC to AC accordingly. If the client opts to go off the grid (partially or totally) then batteries will also be installed and hooked.
Solar panel installations give consumers the power to be free from the grid
A power meter will also be included. This will show how much electrical power the client is using off the grid, off the solar panels, and if it is possible to share the generated electricity with others to cut down on utility costs.
One of the best things about home solar panel providers and installers is that they often offer free quotes. A client may call in and ask for an estimate with no obligation or secret fees to pay. This allows just about anyone and everyone to inquire if they can have their own solar electrical power at home.
This summarizes everything there is to know regarding the basic installation of home solar power systems.
Gain your energy independence with solar
In many rural places, homes are quickly getting off the grid and gaining their independence from big energy businesses through their personal solar panel installation. Some schools are powered by even the most basic of solar systems installed on their roofs.
Not only has this helped many save money but it has also helped some households earn by selling excess energy back to the grid.
