How does solar energy fit in the picture as we celebrate National Manufacturing Day? Solar energy is a way to generate electricity at low cost from manufactured products. First time in history, we do not have to burn anything to power our daily lives. Six solar cells containing crystalline silicon are produced in the United States every second. The Energy Department’s SunShot initiative expects to see nearly three times that amount…
Solar energy is more affordable than ever before in the United States. Solar power deployment has reached unprecedented levels in the past five years due to the cost reduction of P.V. systems, innovative financing methods, and consumer demand. Solar installations began to spread across a few states and in areas with primarily middle- to upper-class households. In 2013, 13 states installed solar systems totaling more than 100 Megawatts. Residential P.V. installations exceeded…
The ninth edition of the Tracking Sun Report, funded by the SunShot initiative, summarizes trends in the price of solar photovoltaic systems for residential and nonresidential use. Solar energy system prices are at an all-time high, as you might expect from a booming industry. Even more exciting is that Berkeley Lab has publicly released the data it used to analyze the report this year. This makes all the non-confidential information from the 800,000…
If you have an inverter at home, this article is for you because you experience frequent power outages. When connected to batteries, inverters allow a household’s operation to continue even if the power supply is down. Most owners don’t know how the system functions but realize that batteries are charged once the power is restored. You also have to know that this backup power is not free. The monthly bill…
India has a generous amount of sunshine almost all year round. Solar power is non-polluting, clean, and renewable. Government authorities understand this. In fact, as of 31st March 2020, the total solar installed capacity in India reached 37.627 GW. Solar energy, in addition to making the future greener and more eco-friendly, can also pave the path for national recovery. The COVID pandemic, after all, has had a profound impact on the…
Solar energy is slowly transforming Indian towns and villages. Solar panels are installed in many homes and factories. However, the financial aspects of solar systems still cause a lot of skepticism. Solar installations can seem expensive, but there is a way to increase efficiency: Solar Battery Storage. What is solar battery storage? Solar batteries allow us to store the extra energy our solar systems produce. A battery solution can improve…
The solar industry has seen steady growth in India over the last few years thanks to its promise of being clean, green, and renewable. The solar industry has seen a significant increase in investment and return value. The above trend has been largely influenced by technological innovation. Solar panels are now being installed on rooftops in homes and offices. Solar panels are a good investment because of their high returns,…
You may be left vulnerable and unprotected if you depend on a traditional security camera if you live in a place that experiences frequent power outages or does not have access to electrical circuits or power lines. Solar security cameras are the answer. Solar-powered CCTV cameras can be used to monitor open areas or rural areas. You will discover that solar CCTV cameras are flexible, scalable, and affordable. They are…
Around the globe, there are approximately 300 million bus stops. If each of these bus stops is equipped with solar panels, an impressive amount of energy could be produced in a simple and environmentally-friendly manner. Even a single solar-powered bus shelter installed in an isolated location without a proper utility grid can significantly impact a community. Solar bus stops will make bus travel more pleasant. Solar bus shelters offer several…
What are solar panels, and what do they do? Solar panels consist of a group of solar cells that are electrically interconnected and convert sunlight to electricity for powering electrical loads. These instruments, also known as PV Panels, can be used in various applications. For example, telecommunications systems, remote power systems, cabins, remote sensing systems, and commercial and residential solar-powered systems can all be used. Genus Innovation offers the best solar…
