FAQ

A few months ago my dad said something about getting solar panels, and how green they were. I was just wondering if there were any companies that sold them and if they would actually make a big difference.
Yes there are companies that sell solar panels, many of them specialize in solar, a simple google search with your state or city name and the word solar should get you many results. There are actually two kinds of solar panels that get installed on homes, one kind creates electricity, the other heats up water. Depending on how large a system you installed, you could have all of your electricity or hot water powered by solar, which would mean you'd use less nonrenewable resources like coal, oil, or natural gas. The other difference the solar panels would make would be in your electric or gas bill, that number would go down right away, but you'd have to wait a few years before the money you save there would cover the cost of buying the panels, the number of years depends on your state, and the size of your system. Starting in January there will be a 30% federal tax credit, that would mean savings for every installation in the US. Also a lot of states now have a rebate program, which means the system is even less expensive.
I am confused. I am planning to build a simple 2Watt solar system to power some lights in my house. . I wonder if it is possible to power up a 2Watt bulb using 2Watt solar power?2. Normally, when we are reading the power rating of a bulb, we will read the wattage, so what about the voltage and current rating?3. If the current is insufficient, will the bulb light up?I am having a solar panel that can output 2W power but I am not sure about the output voltage, how can I find out about the current? I am getting really confused.
. Practically no. You have to account for startup current, and losses in the system. Ideally you would size your solar planel to provide the power you need to charge batteries in the day, for your needs at night. 2. Watts=Volts times Amps Really you just need to match the load and supply for volts, and make sure the supply has enough capacity to run your load. Current will take care of itself., in that the load will take what it needs to do its work. 3. It will bring the voltage down, causing the light to be dimmer.
Could you throw some long scientific words in with your answer so I can impress my teacher, I'm looking to expand my scientific vocab. Thanks
Actually Photovoltaic cells also called solar cells in collection forms solar panel. Photovoltaic cells consist of silicon for converting solar energy into electrical energy.
Yes, solar panels do require a specific orientation and angle for optimal performance. Generally, it is recommended to install solar panels facing south and at an angle equal to the latitude of the installation location. This allows the panels to receive maximum sunlight throughout the day, maximizing their energy production. However, panels can still generate electricity when facing other directions or at different angles, although their efficiency may be slightly reduced.
Solar panels do good more then bad?
Sure your proper, sunlight panels (photovoltics) could be used to make electricity for small electronics. Proper now sun cells are on many calculators, and even flashlight. However the trouble is the lenght of time the cells take to charge the gadget, verses the vigour demand. I don;t consider the scale of the panels, and the period of time needed to charge the device are sensible. One think i've been thinking is that all should have a photovoltaic panel to charge a battery. Then, use the battery to cost phone telephones, MP3 palyers. The panel and the battery would be in regards to the 8 x eleven inches, and could sit down in window, or on a dash board to get charged, then utilized in doorways over night to charge contraptions.
I'm looking into buying solar panels, there are all kinds of ranges of energy output...but my question is, when ti says...say 50 watts of power...does that mean 50 watts a day, an hour, a minute, what?
A 50-watt rating means the panel will produce 50 watts as long as the standard conditions are maintained. So if you had this bright sun and cool temperatures for 6 hours, the panel would deliver 50 x 6 = 900 watt hours, or a little shy of kilowatt-hour. Kilowatt-hours (kWh) is the reading on your electric bill. However, like most advertising, the 50-watt number is not realistic. They assume that the air surrounding the panel is very cold. 25 watts is a better number to use for this size of panel for engineering purposes.
Do I just run the wire from the panel into the charge controller and then to the battery AND can I simultaneously draw energy from the battery while it is being charged by the panel?Is it as simple as hooking it up like that?
You have to keep the polarity straight. Red is positive + Black is negative - I don't know how much amperage you are drawing, or how many amps the solar panel puts out. This charge controller is a device I am unfamiliar with- What does it say on it? how many volts? how many amps?
Can any body tell me how much Electricity can 0 Standard solar panels produce in a day( in terms of Watts)Or else please tell me how many Watts is 5 volts of electricity?
I am sure someone can tall you.
