Solar panels have been around for a few years now being used by both homeowners and business owners to provide electricity by utilising photovoltaic cells in the panels to capture the energy produced by the sun. However, it should be noted that you do not need sunshine to generate electricity in this way – only daylight. The electricity can be used to provide power for such things as lights, heating and numerous appliances.
Solar panels tend to be either roof or ground mounted. Solar panels that are purchased and used by homeowners are usually located on the top of the roofs of their houses and bungalows. An increasing number of businesses such as supermarkets are also installing solar panels on their roofs.
Ground mounted solar panels are often used by commercial businesses set up to produce electricity that is sold to the National Grid or by the likes of a farmer that has a lot of land.
Any surplus electricity can often be sold to the National Grid via the Feed-in-Tariff scheme thus making solar panels cost effective and even generate a surplus income after a number of years.
You will find that there are a lot of companies offering to sell you and install a solar panel system. The difficulty is in trying to choose one that will supply and fit a quality product for a reasonable cost. After all, you do not want to find that you have used a “rogue trader”.
