Benefits Of Commercial Solar Power
With the rapidly changing climate raking havoc across the world, there is an urgent need to turn to greener sources of energy. One of the most popular alternatives to traditional fossil fuels is solar power. Solar energy can be harnessed commercially through solar panels. When solar panels are installed at a building, the photovoltaic cells (PV) collect concentrated sunlight and convert it into direct current electricity during the day. The inverter then converts the DC electricity to alternating current electricity, which is used by all electronics these days. The AC electricity is sent to the breaker box electric panel. The excess solar energy is stored in batteries made of lithium-ion, lead-acid, and saltwater. Lithium-ion batteries are the most efficient option, however, they can be a bit costly.
