A storage battery for a photovoltaic system works as a kind of warehouse for the solar energy produced by photovoltaic panels. The system works by accumulating excess energy during the day, when energy production is greater than usage, to be used during the night or at times when solar radiation is low. The battery is […]
Introduction to measurement and the importance of the HT IV-600 Instrument In the world of photovoltaic systems, maximizing efficiency and ensuring optimal performance is essential to obtain the maximum benefit from solar energy. One of the most crucial analyses for evaluating the performance of a system is the measurement of the I-V curve, which provides […]
Introduction: Photovoltaic panels are devices that convert solar energy into usable electrical energy. When you want to purchase a photovoltaic panel, it’s important to understand the basic information present on its nameplate. This nameplate data provides crucial information about the panel’s performance and will help you make informed decisions. In this guide, we will explain […]
What is an off-grid photovoltaic system? It’s a photovoltaic system that is not connected to the national power grid and operates independently. This type of system is usually used in isolated areas, such as mountain huts, shelters, campers, and boats, where it’s not possible to connect to the power grid. The energy produced by the […]
Is it really possible to save energy by integrating photovoltaic and heat pump? YES, but that’s not all.
In this article, we explain the correlation between Consumption, Self-Consumption, and Energy Independence. The latter is the most important value to consider as it expresses “how independent” one is from the electrical grid. Let’s begin. “Consumption” refers to the total amount of electrical energy used by a user or a company. This includes both energy […]
Solar energy is one of the most important and widely used renewable sources in the world. Photovoltaic systems are an increasingly common solution for producing clean and sustainable electricity. However, many users wonder if investing in a photovoltaic system is really cost-effective. The answer is yes, and the cost-effectiveness can be further increased with the […]
Is a Glass-Glass photovoltaic panel really that resistant? Is its lifespan longer than a Glass-Plastic panel?
The difference between watt (W) and watt-hour (Wh) is that a watt represents a unit of power, while a watt-hour represents a unit of energy. 1 watt (W) is the unit of measurement for power, that is, the amount of energy transferred in one second. 1 watt-hour (Wh) is the unit of measurement for energy, […]
