TOP 10 QUESTIONS You May Ask About Solar Battery System

You may not understand some aspects of solar energy.

In fact, lots of people are the same as you. Here our HITEK ENERGY is here to answer all these questions directly.

1.How do solar panels work?

Solar energy works by capturing the sun’s energy and quietly and effectively turning it into electricity for your home or business.

Solar panels shall convert sunlight into DC electricity, which is then converted into usable AC electricity by a solar inverter.

2.What size solar system do I need for my home?

The size of the solar system you need depends on your energy consumption, the size of your roof, the amount of sunlight your home receives, and the backup capacity you need.

We HITEK ENERGY can help you design suitable size solar system tailored for your demands.

3.When there is no sun, can my solar panel generate electricity?

Actually direct sunlight on the panels is not necessarily required. Solar panels shall generate power based on UV light. Thus even on cloudy days, solar panels can generate electricity. However, since there is no UV light at night, the solar panels will not be able to produce any energy after the sun goes down.

4.If my energy requirements increase, can I upgrade the system?

Yes, it is possible to upgrade your solar power system if your energy requirements increase. This may involve adding more solar panels and batteries or replacing your existing panels and batteries with more efficient ones.

5.Is there any maintenance?

Solar power systems require minimal maintenance. It is a good idea to keep the panels clean and free of debris, and to check that all of the components are working properly.

6.What is the weight of the solar system on the roof?

The weight of a solar power system can vary according to the solar system size and the type of solar panels used. On average, a solar panel weighs around 31 kg, so a typical solar power system with multiple panels can weigh hundreds of kilograms. It is important to ensure that your roof is able to support the weight of the solar system, and a professional installer can help you determine this.

7.What are the benefits of battery storage?

Batteries shall be able to store excess solar energy for use at night or on cloudy days. They will reduce reliance on the grid and the potential to save money on electricity bills by using stored solar energy instead of drawing from the grid.

8.What types of battery storage are available, and which is the best?

There are several types of batteries available, including lead-acid batteries, lithium-ion batteries, and LiFePO4 batteries. Each type of battery has its own advantages and disadvantages, and the best choice for you will depend on your specific needs and budget.

9.Where should batteries get installed?

The battery storage system should be installed in a dry, ventilated area that is protected from extreme temperatures.

It is important to follow all manufacturer guidelines and local building codes when installing the system.

10.Who should install the solar power system?

It is recommended to have a professional install your solar power system to ensure it is installed correctly and safely. You can find accredited installers who have the necessary training and qualifications.
