And now: Learn how solar PV works in your home.
Whether you choose our Solarwatt panels or our natural slate roofing solar inserts, fundamentally, the key components and installation process will be the same.
1] Solar PV Panels
PV panels function by absorbing daylight and using it to create free electricity. Currents created by all of the panels combined adds up to enough electricity to help power your school, home or business.
1] Power inverter
The raw energy that is generated from the panels is referred to as DC or direct current. The inverter converts DC into AC electricity (alternating current) for storage and use around your home.
1] Distribution Board
Your solar panel system is connected directly to your homes distribution (fuse board). Simply put, this is a control panel center for the entire electrical system of the home or business.
1] Battery Storage
Highly advanced batteries retain the free electricity sent from your power Inverter. Here it is stored for later use. This eliminates renewable electricity from being exported back to the grid.
1] System Shunt
The shunt is basically a cut off device and operates as a safety mechanism that allows your electricity supply to be switched off in the event of any emergencies in your home.
1] Monitoring
The Fusion Solar app provides you with real time information and historical data allowing you to understand your generation from your panels and how it is used in your building.
CAR CHARGERS
Charging your electric vehicle is optional with each solar panel installation. With grant availability of €600, there has never been a better time to invest in EV charging solutions.
Solar PV Panels Ireland – FAQ
How does solar PV work?
Solar Photovoltaic (PV) panels generate electricity by absorbing daylight and using that light energy to create an electrical current. There are many PV panels within an installation, and the current created by all of the panels together adds up to enough electricity to help power your school, home or business.
Does Solar PV just heat water?
No! Early solar panels were thermal and just made hot water. Modern PV panels generate electricity for your home or business. They do however heat water by sending surplus or excess electricity to your immersion heater.
How long does a solar panel last?
Different manufacturers provide different warranties. The Solarwatt glass-glass panels we supply have a performance guarantee of 30 years and a useful design life of 60 years.
What size of a Solar PV system do I need?
This is largely determined by your electricity bills. We will analyse these with you and that is the base line we use to design your system. You are billed in kilowatt hours and Solar PV systems are rated in kilowatt hours so the calculations are relatively straightforward.
What are photovoltaic panels made of?
Photovoltaic panels are made using rows of individual solar cells. These cells can be comprised of crystalline silicon, polysilicon and monocrystalline silicon.
Do I need a battery?
In almost all installations a battery will greatly enhance the performance of your system. Unless it is a business with a steady daytime consumption which will use ALL the electricity generated by the panels, there will be what is termed ‘export’. This means that your electricity is fed into the grid and while it is possible to get paid for this, the feed-in tariffs are ALWAYS much lower than the tariff you pay. Also, you are ‘export limited’ to a very small amount of electricity that you are allowed to export. Therefore, it makes sense to store all your own excess electricity and use it at night.
Learn About The Elite Nulok Seamlessly Integrated Solar Slate Roofing System
For people re-roofing an existing property or a new build, the Nulok Solar Tile is an excellent alternative to conventional roof mounted solar panels.
The solar tiles integrate into the roof alongside the Nulok ceramic tiles and are manufactured to look exactly like slates. Thus, a large portion of the new roof can be generating Solar PV electricity while retaining the aesthetic look of a
traditional slate roof.
The best of both worlds.
