When choosing which solar panel best suits your needs, you should consider what problems choosing a low-quality panel may entail. The importance of hot spots Hot spots are a major enemy of solar panels. These spots affect certain areas of the solar panel, leading to a high temperature that directly affects the efficiency, power output and a large increase in the deterioration of the solar panel...

Like any system, the components of a photovoltaic installation must be related to each other. We cannot use a large number of plates or a high-powered inverter to charge batteries that are too small, because if we do not keep a proportional relationship, the useful life of the batteries would be shortened and the efficiency of the installation would be reduced. Number of solar panels required The...

Photovoltaic solar panels, like any other technological device, do not work the same in every situation. In this case, weather conditions, deterioration or orientation can be key factors in their performance. For this reason, it is always advisable to get expert advice both in installation and maintenance, so that you can get the most out of your solar panels and make them work as efficiently as...

Positive plate corrosion occurs mainly when the battery is being charged, especially towards the end of the charge cycle when the battery voltage is high. It is a slow but continuous process that takes place when a battery is floating. Oxidation increases the internal resistance and eventually causes the disintegration of the positive plate. Lead corrosion The high electrical potential of the...

In recent years there are more and more alternatives in renewable energies. Many are the followers of this type of energy, less polluting and more economical than traditional energy. The change towards this type of energy has meant a revolution for both companies and individuals. In this post we will talk about solar energy, focusing on the advantages of irrigation with solar energy, a revolution...

Interest in an alternative energy source for generating electricity at home has increased over the years. The efficiency of solar panels, added to the savings in the electricity bill, has made the citizen realize all the possibilities that are offered even when the installation of these is expensive. According to the historical data, in 2015 there was a growth of up to 70% of these panels...

Passive solar energy is still a big unknown for the population. We tell you everything you need to know about this type of energy and the differences that exist with active energy. Average household energy consumption has increased by 28% after confinement in March 2020. We spend more time at home and energy consumption has shot up in many homes where teleworking has been introduced to stay...
