FAQ's
1. What is a solar rooftop panel system?
A solar rooftop panel system is an arrangement of photovoltaic (PV) panels installed on the roof of a building to convert sunlight into electricity.
2. How does a solar rooftop panel system work?
Solar panels capture sunlight and convert it into DC (Direct Current) electricity. An inverter then converts this DC electricity into AC (Alternating Current), which can be used to power household or commercial appliances.
3. What are the benefits of installing solar rooftop panels?
- Reduced electricity bills - Environmentally friendly energy source - Low maintenance requirements - Potential eligibility for government subsidies or incentives
4. Do solar panels work during cloudy weather?
Yes, solar panels can still generate electricity during cloudy weather, but their efficiency is reduced due to lower sunlight levels.
5.What are the maintenance requirements?
Solar panels require occasional cleaning to remove dirt and debris that may reduce efficiency. Other maintenance tasks include checking electrical connections and ensuring the inverter is functioning properly.
6. Can I sell excess electricity back to the grid?
Yes, many countries have net metering policies that allow homeowners to sell unused electricity back to the grid. You’ll need to check your local regulations.
