Why Solar Invertor Wireless Monitoring is the must have for Homeowners on Solar Power.   Read on to understand why you need to have a Solar Inverter Wireless Monitoring for energy generated by your PV Systems:   With the Australian Governments emphasis that renewable sources of energy must contribute about 20% of the power generation by 2020, the movement to use Solar Power has grown manifold. The systems that harness the solar power are known as Photovoltaic systems or commonly denoted by PV. Solar Inverter Wireless Monitoring – Too GOOD! Most of the residences are tied to the grid. Nearly all the users to the grid draw power from it. A few who have excess generated capacity from their PV systems offload electricity to the grid. The revenues are generally skewed in favor of the power utilities and this will not change for a long time. Inverters; including solar inverter….

Mono crystalline Solar panels Introduction Solar panels come in three different types and this is characterized based on the purity of silica used, the three types are : Monocrystalline Panels Polycrystalline Panels Thin Film Panels The alignment of the silicon molecules determines the efficiency ratio of the solar cell to convert solar energy into electricity. The efficiency rates of monocrystalline solar panels are typically in the range of 15-20%. Monocrystalline Silicon Solar Cells Monocrystalline solar cells are made out of cylindrical shaped silicon ingots.Each module is made from a single silicon crystal, and though more expensive, its more efficient than the other panels. They are recognizable by their color which is typically black or iridescent blue. Benefits of Monocrystalline Solar Panel Below are some of the reasons why these panels score over the others: Better efficiency PV panels made from monocrystalline solar cells have a greater efficiency in converting higher….

Are Chinese Solar components good? Anyone working in the solar industry would know about this question. We get this time and time again, “are Chinese solar panels and inverters good?”. The simple answer to this question is, “YES!” The longer answer to this question is, “most are, some are not.” If there are 1000 solar companies out there, selling solar power equipment, there are 999: companies out there selling Chinese solar panels and inverters. The reason they are doing this, is simply because they work and have proven to be a reliable. Obviously, the Chinese solar panels have to be pretty good if sold companies are continually buying them as wholesalers, from wholesalers, to sell to installers, and then having the installers continuously installed the Chinese made solar panels and inverters onto Australians roofs. Like Deadset, if Chinese solar panels and inverters were so bad they would simply not be….
