The primary role of a solar inverter is to convert direct current (DC) produced by solar panels into appliance-friendly alternating current (AC) electricity. However, its role has expanded over the…
Every solar power system comes with a solar inverter as it is a main component of the system. But is a solar inverter totally necessary for solar panels to function…


As the name suggests, a solar farm is a ‘farm’ that harnesses solar power on a large scale. It is also known as a solar park or solar power station.…
Power plants can generate large amounts of energy in the form of electricity using a variety of resources. Some require raw materials such as coal, wood, fossil fuel, and metals…
Photovoltaic solar power plants can generate enough electricity to power an entire neighbourhood or more, depending on its size and capacity, and more importantly its system. There are three types…


Photovoltaic technology has been continually fine tuned since the early 1900s. Progress in technology has not only made photovoltaics more effective but also much cheaper for the masses to use.…
Solar power meters can indicate pyranometers, which are used to measure solar radiation flux density (W/m2), or any devices used to measure the kWh production from a photovoltaic (PV) system.…
Solar panels use photovoltaic (PV) power generation, which is a solid-state semiconductor device that absorbs sunlight. The PV panels then convert the collection of sunlight into electricity. Hence, the location…
Solar roof ventilation systems are an effective means of diverting heat from a home’s attic space during the hot summer months. Operating without the use of electricity, solar roof vents…
