The Business Guide of Solar Industry | iSolarWorld

In the recent past,  solar energy  has gained momentum around the world as most countries have already shifted their focus from mainstream energy production to the renewable one. In USA, homeowners are starting to look at solar as a viable alternative energy solution as the cost of solar energy has plummeted alongside major improvements in technical efficiencies and manufacturing quality. The most common and important element to produce electricity through solar is nothing but a solar panel. However, we all may have found many such panels installed in our home or offices, however, we are not aware of how these panels work. Using photovoltaic cells,  solar panels  produce electricity. These cells are sandwiched between semi-conducting materials, such as silicon but it can also be glass or polymer resin with different electronic properties to create an electric field. The semiconducting materials energize, when photons or sunlight hit the panels. This photoelectr...

Solar farms are considered as the large-scale application of solar photovoltaic (PV) panels to generate green, clean electricity at scale, usually to feed into the grid. A solar farm also termed as solar parks or solar fields can cover anything between 1 acre and 100 acres, and are usually developed in rural areas. Usually, $3 million is expected to be spent on developing a one-megawatt solar farm if it is a larger one or approximately $500,000 per acre. We need to mention that solar farms that produce less than one megawatt of power usually cannot justify the cost of development.  In 2018, 11.2 GW of new utility-scale projects has been announced in the United States. If reports are to be believed, in recent times, power companies are shying away from ‘traditional’ power plants that burn coal and oil and instead building massive fields full of solar panels. Experts believe that solar is one of the cleanest and most abundant energy resources on the earth, and if we take just a...

Solar panels   are the key component if you wish to generate electricity through  solar energy . However, installing solar panels is not an easy task as this involves a lot of instructions to be followed. When the sunlight hits the surface, solar panels produce electricity; and when the sunlight is perpendicular to the panel face, panels can produce the maximum energy. The best angle is, therefore, is the one that allows the panels to get the most direct and perpendicular light. During the summer, the sun is in a higher position and in lower position during the winter, so it has an average position right in between the two seasons. the same angle as the latitude of your home, by tilting your solar panels, you ensure that you will get the maximum average output from your solar system throughout the year. To maximize energy production, the right angle of your solar array is important. the best angle at which you should install solar panels will change depending on your l...

Solar panels  and solar-powered devices were simply too expensive for the amount of power they generated for a very long time. However,  solar technology  has improved very rapidly and now this has become more efficient and less expensive. You can use solar power to light your home, cook your food, charge your devices, heat up water, and more by spending only a few dollars. The availability and easy access of solar has made this a popular choice of energy resource. Solar can also be used in several other ways. Here, we will cover five different products that don’t require any electricity but only harnesses solar energy. these products can be used in a survival situation or for general outdoor use such as camping and hiking; however, you can also use these in your daily life as well. Mini Portable Solar Oven In a grid down situation, a portable fan is a great thing to build a fire and roast food over it. You need nothing but enough sun to cook anything you want....
