So How does Solar Work?

The earth receives enough solar energy every hour to meet the global energy needs for a year. Solar power generates electricity during the daytime when the temperatures are high and the demand for electric power is at its peak. Australia is one of the sunniest nations on the planet and gets more than enough solar energy to meet its energy needs. At SUNPASS Solar, we are licensed solar panel and inverter suppliers and installers and can help your home or business generate electricity from solar energy. Our solar panels and inverters are sourced from reputed manufacturers and our products are Clean Energy Council approved.

Construction
Solar Panels

Photovoltaic (PV) solar panels have multiple solar panels in different types of glass packaging. These solar cells are made using silicon. The basic construction has the following features:

  • Solar cells have a positive and negative layer
  • The layers produce an electric field
  • SV solar panels are specially encased using aerospace-grade conductive adhesives and encapsulants
  • The cells are protected to prevent or slow down degradation from exposure
How is Electricity Produced in a Solar Panel?

A solar inverter is required to convert DC electricity from your solar array to AC electricity. This device completes additional functions to ensure your home gets seamless supply of electrical power. It provides ground fault protection and information such as:

  • Voltage on the AC/DC circuits
  • Current produced on the circuits
  • Energy produced
  • Tracking maximum power point

While central inverters have been in use since the start, micro-inverters have revolutionised the solar industry. The former optimises for the entire solar system, but the latter optimises for individual solar panels. With a central inverter, an issue on a single solar panel affects the performance of the entire array. Micro-inverters help overcome this challenge by isolating issues and ensuring the overall performance of the array. Micro-inverters also optimise the performance of each solar panel.

Basics of a Solar Panel System

The basic processes taking place in a solar panel system are as follows:

  • When a solar panel receives sunlight, it converts light energy into DC current
  • The inverter converts the DC current to AC current
  • Your grid-tied PV system can produce excess energy during peak daylight hours
  • This excess energy can be fed back to the grid, giving you credit
  • The credit can be used to draw electricity from the grid on cloudy days or at night-time

This system is known as feed-in-tariff and depends on your energy retailer and state. It refers to the rate at which you sell power back to your grid.

When you choose SV Solar for your solar inverter needs, you will be making the decision to save money. It is also an environment-friendly decision as you switch over to renewable energy.
