Becoming Energy Independent

Hello World!  Welcome Friends!  Would you like to become energy independent? In other words, would your home or business benefit from having the capacity to generate its own electricity without the reliance on expensive generators, petrol and diesel costs? Inverter solar power could be the answer you’re looking for. Investing in this type of system could give you all this and more.

Once your solar inverter, panels and batteries are installed, there is very little in the way of maintenance on an ongoing basis. You have a secure source of electricity for your home, because the sun cannot be turned off. It is also reliable: we know that the sun rises and sets each day and can predict to a large extent how many hours it will shine for each season. Even if it’s cloudy, the solar cells will collect energy, albeit at a slightly reduced rate. 

Excess electricity generated during sunlight hours and not used immediately is stored in batteries for use when it’s dark, so there is no wastage with this type of solar installation.  The fact is, though, that even though prices have come down recently, many people cannot afford the initial investment outright in a solar set-up for their home or business. Fear not: it could still be an affordable solution. Most solar companies will provide a range of options for financing your purchase, so that you can pay for it over a longer period of time. And when you think of what you’ll routinely save on cheaper renewable energy, you will see that it could be more affordable than you think.

Choosing The Right Size For Your Own Requirements

If you are in the process of setting up your first solar power system for your home, it may all appear mysterious and complicated. One of the most critical parts of the system is the solar panel inverter, which converts the sun’s rays captured by the solar panels into a form that can be utilized in your house or office.

But how do you know which size of solar inverter is right for your needs? It’s not always an easy process. You have to make sure that the inverter you choose is capable of supplying sufficient renewable energy to power all the devices you intend to run off your solar panels at any one time. This involves checking each appliance’s power requirement specification, which can usually be found in the user manual issued at the time of purchase. Consider electrical items which will be left on at all times, as well as ones that may be running periodically. Add up the wattage for all devices. It is then best to factor in an additional 20%, to take into account any additional power surge and prevent the system from shorting if this happens. 

Then, choose the appropriate size inverter accordingly. If all this sounds complicated, then luckily, there is an easier way, and that is to employ the services of an experienced and reputable company that deals in designing and delivering solar power solutions to a wide range of consumers. That way, you only need to tell them what you want your solar system to achieve and they will be pleased to help you choose the right pieces of kit.
