Solar Panels, Inverters, and Batteries are the key components of a Solar Photovoltaic system. Batteries give you the option of storing any unused energy at the point of generation for later use. Battery storage is optional and not required for all Solar PV systems.
How does it work?
A Solar Photovoltaic (or PV) System is able to generate, store, and power your home, commercial property, or business with renewable energy from the sun. The Photovoltaic Cells or Solar Panels collect packets of the sun’s energy from sunlight and converts it into Direct Current (DC). This current through your solar inverter is then changed into an Alternating Current (AC) to be used domestically or commercially.
Solar Panels absorb UV lighting from the sun, even in snowy conditions. This energy is used to generate electricity. Power Optimisers can be added to further enhance the performance of the solar panels.
The AC current is available for use immediately, for any electrical item, in the home or at work.
The Consumer Unit Board controls the distribution of Solar energy.
The import meter transfers any unused energy to the National Grid. For systems with battery storage, this will only occur when the battery capacity has been reached.
The installed inverter changes the current generated by the panels, from DC to AC, so it can be used domestically.
Batteries are not an essential item within the Solar PV set up but can you give greater flexibility with the energy you generate.Any surplus energy, not in immediate demand, is stored in your battery system for later use.Multiple batteries can be installed to generate enough power for higher user.
Is available to power your home or business via the panels directly or from the battery storage.
By exporting surplus energy to the National Grid through an Export Tariff, you have the potential to earn additional funds.
