Solar Photovoltaic Systems
Solar Photovoltaic modules generate and store electricity from the sun’s energy through the use of rechargeable modules. They produce energy that contributes to the running of appliances and lighting within the home without harming the environment.
The energy that is produced within the panels from the sunlight will feed into a battery. An inverter will convert the direct current electricity from the panels into alternating current. The electricity that is generated by the solar panels is then transferred through the controller which will allow the electricity to be turned on and off so it can be used for electrical domestic units.
Solar Photovoltaic systems produce no greenhouse gases. An example of how effective it can be is in the following example;
A typical domestic system can save approximately 1.2 tonnes of carbon dioxide per year, adding up to almost 30 tonnes over a system's lifetime.
