FAQs

Solar energy is power generated from the sun's rays, harnessed through solar panels to produce electricity or heat water.

Solar panels contain photovoltaic cells that convert sunlight into electricity when exposed to sunlight. This electricity can be used to power homes or businesses.

Solar energy can lower energy bills, reduce carbon emissions, increase energy independence, and provide a clean, renewable energy source.

Solar panels can work in various locations, but the amount of sunlight you receive and local regulations can impact their effectiveness.

The cost varies based on factors like system size, location, and incentives, but prices have been decreasing in recent years.

Many regions offer incentives, tax credits, or rebates to encourage solar adoption. Check with local authorities or consult your installer for details.

Net metering allows you to sell excess electricity your solar panels generate back to the grid, earning you credits or payments.

Solar panels are less efficient in cloudy conditions and do not generate power at night. Battery storage can provide electricity during non-sunny hours.

Solar panels typically have a lifespan of 25-30 years or more, with most manufacturers offering warranties lasting 20-25 years.

Yes, solar panels produce clean energy and reduce reliance on fossil fuels, making them an environmentally friendly energy source.

Yes, it's possible to use solar panels and a battery system to live off-grid, though it requires careful planning and additional equipment.

Solar panels are low-maintenance. Occasional cleaning and inspections can ensure they operate efficiently.
