Q:Can solar panels be used in areas with frequent power outages?

Yes, solar panels can be used in areas with frequent power outages. Solar panels generate electricity from sunlight, which means they can continue to produce power even during power outages. By installing battery storage systems, the excess energy generated during the daytime can be stored and used during periods of low sunlight or power outages. This allows solar panels to provide a reliable source of electricity in areas with frequent power outages.

Q:A local air conditioning company is advertising combining their (newly installed) central air conditioning system for homes, with roof solar panels. They say that the combination MAY reduce your electric bill. Nothing I can see to back-up their claims. Hmmmmm. And they offer, if you can get it; central air conditioning that runs on natural gas. Again, possibly cheaper than using electricity.Has any one actually tested to find out if solar panels and/or natural gas DOES, or DOES NOT save you any money to make it worth the bother?

Q:I've been looking into solar panels. They are fairly expensive ($35k or so). My state has some rebates and grants available. Is anyone aware of any federal grants and rebates other than the federal tax credit? We are subject to AMT tax and can't take the credit. (Which is ridiculous, is the federal government committed to conservation or aren't they??????)

I have some panels on my house and no they are not cheap. If you look around you can buy them for around $4.70 per watt for a 00 plus watt panel, this will make them $470 or more. But you will get a first quality panel. And no I do not know of any fed. government programs for home owners. These kind of programs usually only go to large companies. And it does not look like our government is going to help seeing how the let the large oil companies keep there tax programs but refused to help solar. This just happened today when the senate voted on the energy plane. Good luck go solar

Q:I would like to know how much a solar panel would cost for a wingspan of 208 ft for a plane

2,000 that we have used 4 project , its based on the cell size

Q:Can solar panels be used for powering remote monitoring systems?

Yes, solar panels can be used to power remote monitoring systems. Solar panels generate electricity from sunlight and can charge batteries or directly power devices. This renewable energy source is ideal for remote locations where access to the electrical grid is limited or unavailable. Solar panels can provide a reliable and sustainable power solution for remote monitoring systems, ensuring continuous operation without the need for frequent battery replacement or reliance on fossil fuels.

Q:I want to know how you can store energy using a solar panel. The energy stored needs to be stored so that a light or laptop charger can plug in to it.

Solar panel is not a energy storing device, rather it converts light energy to electrical energy and this energy either can directly used to run instruments or can be fed to battery for storing. The working of the solar panel is like the inverse action of a LED, i.e. a LED converts electrical energy in to light where as a solar panel converts light energy in to electrical energy, basically it is a P-N junction diode.

Q:Can solar panels be installed on refugee camps?

Yes, solar panels can be installed on refugee camps. In fact, they have been successfully implemented in many refugee camps around the world. Solar panels provide a sustainable and reliable source of electricity, which is crucial for powering lighting, charging mobile phones, running medical equipment, and other essential needs. Additionally, solar energy helps reduce the dependence on fossil fuels, lowers costs, and improves living conditions for refugees.

Q:Can solar panels be installed on remote monitoring systems?

Yes, solar panels can be installed on remote monitoring systems. Solar panels provide a reliable and sustainable source of power for remote monitoring systems, allowing them to operate efficiently even in areas without access to grid electricity.

Q:i am wanting to build a small tiny house running 3-4 2 volt 5 watt light bulbs for a lighting source and using a Koolatron Fun Kool 26 Quart 2V Portable Mini Fridge This cooler consumes 4.5 amps at 2 volts. The conversion is: 4.5 amps (X) times 2 volts (=) equals 54 watts. and i want a solar system that will have back up for 2 days with the lights on for probly 5-6 hours a day so theirs no room for error

you silly ! with Solar there is always room for error . you have to build it in to your numbers . solar is full of errors . So you should plan on producing at 3 times what you expect you will need . then you have enough .
