Solar Inverter Solar Inverter or PV Inverter takes current from the battery then converts it to AC current to be able to run any common appliances in your house. Sizes of inverters you need may vary, depending on your usage and the equipments or appliances that you have. An average house needs 4000-5000 watts continuous…
Solar PV Battery Storage For many solar systems, batteries are needed both for grid-tied and off-grid installations. Solar PV Battery Storage stores direct current (DC) energy when there’s an excess generated energy by solar modules, and then distribute it back when it’s needed. Without a battery to store generated energy, you will only get to…
Solar Charge Controllers The strong the sunlight, the more voltage solar panels produce. In this case, extremely excessive voltage may damage your solar PV batteries. This is primarily the reason why a Solar Charge Controller is used; that is to keep the right charging voltage on solar PV batteries. Solar charge controllers basically prevents your…
Fixed solar panel mounts – simplest and cheapest type solar panel mounting system; not moving and always facing the equator. Solar Panel for Home Solar Energy Panels are renewable energy resource that generates power or energy from the sun to convert it into electricity. It doesn’t require any moving parts, it has no emission, does not require…
“How much will a solar system cost” would probably be the first question that comes to mind when planning to install solar PVs. The question might not be answered without doing a little research work, though. Solar panel cost vary, depending on the type and the size of the solar system you’re going to purchase…
What you may initially hear from a lot of people who are planning to install solar PVs are these questions: “Which is the most efficient solar panel?”, or “Which brand is the best?”. Asking these questions is natural especially if you have plans to invest on it. Searching for the perfect solar panel is what…
Solar Glossary Solar Term Definition AGM (Adsorbed Glass Mat) Type of battery construction which uses saturated adsorbant glass mats instead of liquid or gelled electrolyte; typically more reliable compared to flooded (liquid), but also more expensive. Alternating current (AC) An electrical current that continually reverses direction of flow; powers electronic devices or appliances in your…
Malaysian homeowners or property owners now have the chance to generate electricity and actually get paid for it by TNB. This is possible under the Malaysia FiT System, which aims to promote the development of Renewable Energy. While there are various choices of RE sources, Solar PV seems to be the most feasible option for…
Solar PV installers in Malaysia provide valuable service to people who wanted to take advantage of the solar energy. While there are many good solar PV installation companies in this country, there are still a lot that are considered as “bad” at their field. With that being said, you, as the consumer, should be more…
