The number of people introducing solar power generation into their homes is on the rise. Even in the case of built-for-sale houses, there are many that have a solar power generation system installed in advance. Why are the cases of introduction increasing?
The reason is that solar power has various aspects such as investment and savings. Let’s take a look at the basic mechanism of solar power generation, its advantages. In addition, we will also introduce the installation costs that you should know when actually considering the introduction.
By introducing this mechanism into homes, not only will you be able to use electricity more efficiently and save on electricity bills, but you will also be able to lead a comfortable life throughout the year.
How does a Solar Power System work?
In photovoltaic power generation, panels made of materials that generate electricity when sunlight hits the roof of a house are installed. It is a mechanism that uses a solar inverter to convert the electric power produced by the solar cells, which are panels of sunlight, into electric power similar to that of an electric power supplier. A solar inverter is a device that converts “DC power” produced by solar panels into the same power company as “AC power”.
The converted power is then supplied to home appliances used at home. In order to convert the power that can be supplied from the sunlight, not only solar panels and power conditioners, but also junction boxes, distribution boards, and monitors for checking the amount of power generated are required.
On bad weather or at night when sunlight cannot generate electricity, you will need to use electricity from the electric power company, but if you have a residential storage battery, you can store the generated electricity. In addition, since the mechanism of solar power generation is automatically exchanged, daily settings are not required.
Benefits of installing solar power system at your home
- Solar power system has the ability to reduce utility bills. Photovoltaic power generation installed in a house uses the generated electricity at home, so utility costs can be reduced.
In addition, it is also important to take advantage of courses that offer good nighttime electricity, use plans that reduce night time electricity, and incorporate residential storage batteries.
The biggest merit is that it helps the household budget by storing it in a storage battery on days when it is not used and using the power of the storage battery well without purchasing power on bad weather. - The second is that it can be used as an investment. By comparison, the investment in solar power generation requires an initial investment amount, but it is characterized by a feed-in tariff system that allows the electric power company to purchase the surplus electricity when it is less than 10 kW.
- Solar panels are highly durable. Many people are concerned that the price of solar panels themselves is high and that if they deteriorate the replacement and repair costs will also increase. However, it hardly deteriorates over time, and it is rare that it breaks down or is damaged.
