Solar technology is incredibly easy to create- when you know what you are doing. The way in which solar power works, is actually very simple. In a nutshell, the solar panels are made from thin wafers of silicon ingot and the cells inside create a charge of electricity when exposed to sunlight- fairly simple?
With heaps and heaps of information available on the web about solar panels, some might be tempted to do some research and figure out how to make solar panels. Some experimental, avid renewable energy fans might even purchase some instructions online, buy all the parts they need and start building the solar powered system themselves- but is it worth it? For residential solar installations, solar panels are relied on to power your entire house for yourself and for your family. For commercial solar installations, your system is relied upon to power your business and more often much more of a complex installation.
There are tonnes of sites on the internet on, ‘how to make your own solar panels’ that suggest that building a solar panel system for your home is cheap and straight forward and that you can create a system, capable of powering your house entirely on its own without the aid of the network is grid. Unfortunately, this information is misleading.
You can even purchase DIY solar panel kits on Ebay and this is a bad idea for a number of reasons: Besides the blatant dangers of climbing up on to your roof, working with electricity is a job where you can’t afford to make mistakes. If you connect the right part with the wrong part, you are at danger of an electric shock. The time is takes you to install your own system is going to be far longer than the time it would take professionals to install your system- do you really want to be waiting around for ages? If your DIY kit doesn’t come with clear instructions, then you are faced with a lot of homework to do to install your system and frankly, making a rod for your own back. The cost of DIY kits is not particularly cheap either and if your system fails, who is liable for the warranty of your product?!
Solar powered systems are incredibly efficient, environmentally friendly and can create significant savings on your electricity bill.
