FAQ's

01

How do solar panels work?
Solar panels work by capturing sunlight and converting it into electricity using photovoltaic (PV) cells. When sunlight hits the PV cells, it creates a flow of electrons, which can then be harnessed to power homes, businesses, and other devices.

02

How much do solar panels cost?
The cost of solar panels can vary depending on a number of factors, including the size of the system, the type of panels used, and the installation costs. However, prices have been decreasing in recent years and many incentives and tax credits are available to help reduce the overall cost.

03

How long do solar panels last?
Solar panels are designed to last for decades, with many manufacturers offering warranties of 20-25 years or more. With proper care and maintenance, solar panels can last even longer.

04

How much electricity can solar panels generate?
The amount of electricity a solar panel can generate depends on a number of factors, including the size of the system, the type of panels used, and the amount of sunlight the panels receive. A professional installer can help you determine the potential output of your system based on your specific circumstances.

05

Do I need batteries to store solar energy?
Batteries can be used to store excess solar energy for use later, but they are not always necessary. Many solar panel systems are connected to the grid, which allows excess energy to be sold back to the utility company for credit.

06

What happens on cloudy days or at night?
Solar panels do not generate electricity at night, but any excess energy generated during the day can be stored in batteries or sold back to the grid for credit. On cloudy days, solar panels still generate electricity, but at a reduced rate.

07

Is solar energy reliable?
Yes, solar energy is a reliable source of energy, provided that the system is installed properly and maintained regularly. With proper care and maintenance, solar panels can last for many years and provide a reliable source of energy for homes and businesses.

08

Can solar panels work in cold climates?
Yes, solar panels can still generate electricity in cold climates, although their efficiency may be reduced in very cold temperatures. It's important to choose panels that are designed to handle the climate in which they will be installed.

09

Are there any incentives or tax credits available for solar energy?
Yes, there are many incentives and tax credits available to help reduce the cost of solar energy, including federal tax credits, state incentives, and utility rebates. Be sure to check with your local government and utility company to learn more.

10

Can I install solar panels myself?
It is possible to install solar panels yourself, but it is typically not recommended. Solar panel installation can be complex and requires a significant amount of knowledge and experience to ensure that the system is installed properly and safely. It's generally best to work with a professional installer who has experience in the field.
