Frequently Asked Questions
A solar PV (Photovoltaic) system converts sunlight directly into electricity using solar panels. The panels generate direct current (DC) electricity, which is then converted to alternating current (AC) by an inverter to power your home or business.
The amount of space required depends on your energy needs and the size of the system. Typically, a residential solar PV system requires about 4-5sqm of roof space per kilowatt (kW) of installed capacity.
The energy generated depends on several factors, including the system size, location, orientation, and weather conditions. On average, a 5 kW system can generate approximately 500-750 kWh of electricity per month.
Installing a solar PV system can significantly reduce your electricity bills, decrease your carbon footprint, and increase the value of your property. It also contributes to a more sustainable and environmentally friendly energy future.
Solar PV systems are designed to last for 25-30 years or more. Most solar panels come with a warranty of 25 years, ensuring long-term performance. The inverters typically last 10-15 years and may need to be replaced once during the system’s lifetime.
Solar panels still produce electricity on cloudy days, but their output is reduced compared to sunny conditions. However, they do not generate electricity at night. To ensure continuous power, solar PV systems can be paired with energy storage solutions or remain connected to the grid.
The energy generated depends on several factors, including the system size, location, orientation, and weather conditions. On average, a 5 kW system can generate approximately 500-750 kWh of electricity per month.
Net metering is a billing arrangement that allows you to receive credits for excess electricity generated by your solar PV system that is sent back to the grid. These credits can be used to offset your electricity consumption during times when your system isn’t producing enough power.
Yes, it is possible to go off-grid with a solar PV system, but it typically requires a larger system and sufficient battery storage. Off-grid systems are more common in remote areas, while grid-tied systems with net metering are often more practical and cost-effective in urban areas.
If your solar PV system produces more energy than you consume, the excess electricity is sent back to the grid, and you receive credits through net metering. These credits can be applied to your future electricity bills, helping you save even more on your energy costs.
Solar PV systems require minimal maintenance. The panels should be kept clean and free of debris to ensure optimal performance. Regular inspections by a professional are recommended to check for any potential issues, such as loose connections or shading problems.
Yes, a properly sized solar PV system can power your entire home or business, depending on your energy consumption and available roof space. We assess your energy needs and design a system that can meet or exceed your consumption levels.
Yes, there are often incentives and rebates available for installing solar PV systems, which can significantly reduce the upfront cost. These may include government tax credits, rebates, and feed-in tariffs. We can help you navigate and apply for any available incentives.
The installation time for a solar PV system varies depending on the size and complexity of the project. Typically, residential installations take 1-3 days, while larger commercial – industrial installations may take a week or more.
Monocrystalline solar panels are made from a single crystal structure, making them more efficient and typically more expensive. Polycrystalline panels are made from multiple crystal structures, which makes them slightly less efficient but more affordable.
When installed correctly by experienced professionals, solar panels should not damage your roof. In fact, they can extend the life of the roof by shielding it from the elements. Our installation team ensures that the panels are securely mounted, and that the roof’s integrity is maintained.
