How Solar Panels Function
Have you ever wondered how solar panels actually work? We’ve laid out some of the key mechanisms that allow your panels to turn the sun’s rays into powering your home.
Sunlight Absorption
The solar panels installed at your home will absorb the sunlight from above and turn it into direct current electricity.
DC to AC Conversion
Your solar energy system’s inverter will change the direct current into alternating current that your home’s electronic fixtures and appliances can use.
Excess Energy Return
If too much energy is created, it will flow back into the grid, saving you money on your electricity bill.
The Solar Panel Installation Process
Here’s the process we follow when performing solar installation in Moorestown, NJ, at your residence:
- Inspection and Consultation: We’ll begin by performing an inspection on your property and your roof to determine the best location for the solar panels and the best system for your needs.
- Tailored Design: You’ll get a design that’s customized for your home’s structural requirements and energy usage.
- Site Preparation: If your solar panels are being installed on your roof, we’ll make sure the roof is in good enough shape to handle the solar panel installation. We’ll clear any debris or obstacles from the area if your panels are to be installed on the ground.
- Installation: This is when our team of experienced technicians will meticulously install the new solar panels on your property and hook them up to your electrical system.
- Final Walkthrough: After making sure any debris from the installation process is fully cleaned up, we’ll perform a final inspection and walk you through how to use your new solar energy system.
If you have any additional questions about the process, please reach out to us at Raynor Services by phone or online.
Common Solar Panel Types
There are three main types of solar panels that can be installed on your home’s property in Moorestown, NJ.
Monocrystalline
More expensive, but with the highest efficiency and an especially long lifespan of up to 30 years, this type of solar panel uses one large silicon crystal. Its appearance is sleek and dark black. They’re especially great if you don’t have as much space and need to maximize your energy output.
Polycrystalline
More affordable than monocrystalline, polycrystalline panels use silicon fragments fused together. As a result, their appearance is blue and more speckled than that of monocrystalline panels. They’re most often used in commercial capacities with more space, since they’re less efficient than the monocrystalline versions, but can be used in residences with the room to install them.
Thin-Film
This type of solar panel coats an existing surface in a very thin layer of solar-panel material. Because of this, they can be used on curved surfaces and are highly flexible. The downsides include being less efficient and requiring more space to provide an adequate amount of energy. They’re often used on larger-scale solar farms with lots of land.
