In 1838, a man named Edmund Becquerel observed and published his findings about the nature of materials to turn sunlight into energy. Although his discovery was found interesting by his peers it was not pursued in greater detail. In the 1880s scientists made SOLAR cells of selenium. In the mid1950s, Calvin Fuller, Gerald Pearson and Daryl Chaplin of Bell Laboratories discovered silicon as a semi-conductor which led to the construction of today’s PV Cell and subsequently SOLAR PV Panel.

What is the ideal direction to receive heat and radiation from SUN
South is the best direction to get maximum sun exposure.
What factors effect SOLAR radiation
Location of site, Local climate – ambient temperature, Wind velocity, Snow loads (in Snowfall areas) and salt water (in Coastal areas) can all affect a SOLAR array.
How to judge yourself, if SOLAR collectors can work at any site?
Location of site, Local climate – ambient temperature, Wind velocity, Snow loads (in Snowfall areas) and salt water (in Coastal areas) can all affect a SOLAR array.
What factors effect SOLAR radiation
Take a look around you roof area. And follow 3 steps.
- 1. Sun exposure? Orienting SOLAR collectors to the south maximizes the effectiveness of energy collection.
- 2. Shadow exposure of sun? Shading PV panels reduces their effectiveness.
- 3. Angle of your roof ? PV panels can be installed on all roofs, from flat to 60-degrees.
What’s the difference between SOLAR photovoltaic and SOLAR hot water systems?
While both types of SOLAR systems capture energy from the sun, SOLAR photovoltaic systems use photovoltaic panels to produce electricity. SOLAR hot water, or thermal systems capture sunlight to heat water for domestic use, to heat a swimming pool, or for a radiant heating system.
How do I know what system size I need?
For starters, our assistance will make this very easy for you as we will give you all the needed information.
A team of installers will come down and complete a site survey to give a proper estimate. The SOLAR system size will be based on the average total kilowatt-hours of electricity used by the household in the last 12 months.
What are the environmental benefits?
The major benefits of using a SOLAR system are the reduction of waste, higher efficiency usage of electricity, conservation of fossil fuels and reduction of pollutants.
