Solar System
Add to Basket Remove from Basket Enquire
Model No.: JC-1000-6000W
Product Specifications:

* Solar power systems connect directly into your electric company's power grid.
* During the day, your solar power system is generating electricity that is directed onto the main grid, sort of like a small power station.
* Then at night, you simply draw whatever power you need right back off the grid.
* The electricity you generated (or saved) during the day for others to use will be paid back to you in the evenings when lighting and other electrical loads are needed.
* If your system is of sufficient size and produces more power during the day than you use in the evenings, you may actually end up with a surplus of electricity.
* In this case, many electric companies offer a program which is commonly known as "net metering" wherein, if your system produces more than you use, you will be paid a pre-determined amount of money for each kilowatt hour your system produces.
* You could actually get a check from your power company instead of sending them one.
* Solar systems are becoming a more and more popular option for homes today.
* It is no wonder why with all they do to save money as well as to save the environment.
* The way they save the environment is by making use of solar energy.
* Sunlight is an inexhaustible energy source as opposed to many other sources of energy.
* In addition to not contributing to the depletion of the planet's resources, solar power systems do not create any harmful emissions.
* This is untrue of the fossil fuels used to create city power.
* The use of a free and renewable energy source is also they way in which they create money savings for homeowners.
* There are a few basic things which should be considered before the purchase of solar power systems.
* Location is one of these things.
* This refers in part to the geographic location of the home- whether it is at the equator, far north of the equator, etc.
* It also refers to the specific area of the home where the solar panels will be placed.
* For best results, the PV panels of solar power systems should face solar south.
* Solar south is slightly different than magnetic south.
* Magnetic south is determined by a compass, while solar south is determined by the path of the sun.
* Though not ideal, an angle within 30 degrees of magnetic south is also acceptable.
* If a tree is shading the southern-facing parts of a home, it may be difficult to get a solar power system to work particularly well.
* The same is true of areas where the sun is always behind clouds.
* Some solar power will be produced as long as there is light, but it may be very little.
* Very northern locations, such as Alaska, will allow solar power systems to produce immense amounts of energy during the summer yet very little during the shorter days of winter.
