If you’re looking to invest in solar PV panels, our team is here to support you every step of the way.
The UK recently enjoyed the hottest June on record, which means those with solar PV panels have been reaping the rewards of their investment. Green energy experts are reporting that long summer days are set to boost the production of solar energy in the coming months.
In other words, now is a great time to introduce this green technology to your rooftop.
Solar panels can slash both your energy bills and your carbon footprint.
Better yet, a modern solar photovoltaic (PV) system is capable of lasting for decades, making it a fantastic investment for your property. They’re the best way to convert sunlight into usable electrical energy, providing a renewable and sustainable source of power.
Although particular factors, such as extreme weather, might affect their lifespan, studies have shown that solar panels in moderate climates still deliver around 96% of their performance levels after working for two decades.
Furthermore, solar panels are becoming increasingly long-lasting as the technology advances and evolves. They have also become more affordable, with significant cost reductions achieved in recent years.
The reduction in costs has made solar energy more competitive compared to traditional energy sources across the UK.
How do PV (solar photovoltaic) panels actually work?
As photons strike the surface of the solar panel, they transfer the energy to electrons in the silicon atoms. This energy absorption causes the electrons to break free from their atoms and create free-flowing electrons or electron-hole pairs.
If your solar panels generate excess electricity, this can even be fed back into the grid, resulting in net metering or credits on the electricity bill. This means they play an important role in decentralised energy production, enabling homeowners and businesses to generate their own electricity, reducing reliance on centralised power grids.
