Yes, solar panels can be installed on a pergola or shade structure. In fact, installing solar panels on a pergola or shade structure can provide both shade and renewable energy generation, making it a practical and efficient solution for maximizing space and reducing energy costs.
I am seriously thinking about installing PhotoVoltais Solar panels (that generate electricity) on my roof. Besides the usual (cost, ROI, etc.), I was researching for the maintenance of these panels. We have tall trees around the house and needles and leaves fall on our roof all the time... not to mention the dirt and grime that collects over time.Do these decrease the capacity of the panels? Do the panels require a regular maintenance?Thanks!
panels need full sun. any shade reduces out put. leaves left on them will cause the individual cells burn out. they nneed adjusting every season, an washed with a soft cloth once a year.
I know there's different brands of solar panels and they cost different amounts.But if anyone know the average price of one solar panel could you help me out?Also could you please list the size of the solar panel.

i want to instal solar ligth in my garden
hello, okorder /
i have to do a science fair project and thought it would be cool to make a solar powered vw bus. i have 2 6volt solar panels to power a dc motor that works off of 9v 2v or 8v. i also bought a 2nd motor because the first wasnt workin for us. this one is a 3v motor. ive had them in the sun but they wont work. please help, thanks
You didn't say how much power your panels can produce, or how much power (current x volts) the motors require. The panels must meet or exceed what the motor requires. You might need to get a very small motor and a little gearbox out of some other motorized toy, or at least a small pinion gear for the motor and a larger ring gear that can be attached to an axle (similar to how RC cars accomplish their drive train). A worm gear drive set might be even better if the motor / solar panel combination isn't very powerful - it'll go slowly, but some movement is better than no movement. If you put the panels in series, a 2 V motor should be the best match (again, only if its power requirements are small enough). If you want to try running the 3 volt motor off the panels, you might try paralleling them (make sure you get the polarity right or they'll try to kill each other) - you'll still be mis-matched, but if the motor requires less power than the 9/2/8 volt motor(s), it might work. If you have or can acquire a multi-meter, you'll be able to measure the voltages and currents and that will not only help you see what's going on, but adding some details might help others help you get this working.
Yes, solar panels can be used to power a water pump. Solar panels convert sunlight into electricity, which can be used to power various devices and appliances, including water pumps. This allows for a sustainable and environmentally friendly way to pump water without relying on traditional energy sources.
I have an electric bicycle that I travel to work by, pulling a modified child carrying trailer that holds two 2 volt deep cycle batteries in series to power the 24 volt bike motor. I'm thinking about adding a 50 watt solar panel (or larger depending on the room I can make available) to charge while I'm at work and to provide some extra juice while on my more distant travels.Can I get a solar panel to charge them while they're connected the way they are: in series? Does charging work that way?I've read that in order to charge the 24 volt battery setup (if the answer to the Q above is yes), the output from my solar panel would need to be a little more than 24 volts. Is this true? If so, how many volts?Since the bike is supposed to be powered at 24 volts and I have an x-volt (x gt; 24v) solar panel connected to it, will this cause any damage to the controller or other components while running them?Will it help supply power even while the motor is being run?Thanks.
A solar panel to charge a 2V battery has 36 cells in series. This allows for temperature of the panel up to 60°C, and the maximum required charge voltage. For a 24V battery, 2 panels in series. A 24V battery requires around 28-29V, but look up your battery data sheet to be certain. A specialized converter using electronics could charge a 24V battery with a 2V panel. The system voltage is controlled by the battery unless the battery is faulty. The 2 panels in series could be 42 volts no load, but the battery pulls this down to whatever is required by the battery. This is because the panels are a current source, the current is determined by illumination, and attempts to draw more result in reduced voltage. Even a short circuited panel delivers approx. the same current with no voltage. The battery voltage varies from around 20V (really flat) to around 28V (really charged). A 30W panel is around .75A, considering the optimum panel voltage for power is around 7V for 36 cells. This is small compared with what you are using. The battery wastes about 30% of the power, in chemical conversions. The time to charge it is 4h at the 0h rate, which is Ah/0. (i.e. ampere hours)
My dad owns a restaurant, and we are doing farely well, but we were thinking on installing solar panels to minimize electricity costs (and of course make it greener). My dad would like to hear some numbers on the price in today (August 29/202) and savings he could possibly make over the years. So In Total Here's What I'm Asking:) Would it be hard to install?2) Maintanence?3) Monthly Expense? (None?)4) Price?5) Savings over time?6) Pros/ConsThank you so much!
This is highly sensitive to your geographical location, and what the roof looks like. If there isn't a large, flat area clear of shadows, it will be a hard proposition. The best thing is to contact a local solar installer for a quote. On Y!A, we can't come close without actually walking the roof. In general, few restaurants opt for solar power today. That suggests that it's not very good payback in that situation.
