คำถามที่พบบ่อย
1. What is a photovoltaic system?
A PV (photovoltaic) system is a renewable energy setup that converts sunlight directly into electricity using solar panels made of semiconductor materials. These systems are commonly used for residential, commercial, and industrial energy needs.
2. How does a photovoltaic system work?
A PV system consists of solar panels that absorb sunlight and convert it into direct current (DC) electricity. An inverter then converts this DC electricity into alternating current (AC), which appliances can use or send to the electrical grid.
3. What are the main components of a photovoltaic system?
Solar Panels: Capture sunlight and generate electricity.
Inverter: Converts DC electricity to AC.
Mounting System: Secures the panels to roofs or the ground.
Battery Storage (optional): Stores excess energy for later use.
Monitoring System: Tracks energy production and system performance.
4. What are the benefits of a photovoltaic system?
Reduces electricity bills.
Environmentally friendly, producing no greenhouse gases.
Low maintenance costs.
Can increase property value.
Provides energy independence, especially with battery storage.
5. How long do photovoltaic systems last?
Solar panels typically last 25–30 years, and inverters last 10–15 years. Regular maintenance can ensure optimal performance.
6. Do PV systems work on cloudy days?
Yes, but their efficiency is reduced. Solar panels still generate electricity on cloudy days, though the output will be lower than on sunny days.
7. What happens at night or when there’s no sunlight?
PV systems do not produce electricity at night. However, systems with battery storage can provide power during these times. Alternatively, electricity can be drawn from the grid if the grid is connected.
8. How much space do I need for a photovoltaic system?
The space required depends on your energy needs and the efficiency of the solar panels. On average, residential systems need 200–400 square feet (18–37 square meters) of roof space.
9. How much does a photovoltaic system cost?
Costs vary based on system size, components, and installation. In the U.S., a residential PV system typically costs between $10,000 and $30,000 before incentives. Tax credits and rebates can significantly reduce this cost.
10. Do photovoltaic systems require maintenance?
PV systems are low-maintenance. The main requirements are cleaning panels periodically and ensuring the inverter operates correctly. Professional inspections every few years are recommended.
11. Can I go off-grid with a photovoltaic system?
Yes, but going off-grid requires a larger system with sufficient battery storage to meet all energy needs, including during periods of low sunlight.
12. Is a building permit needed to install a photovoltaic system?
Most localities require permits for solar installations. Your installer typically handles the permitting process.
13. Can a photovoltaic system be expanded later?
Yes, most systems can be expanded by adding more panels or upgrading components, depending on the inverter and space availability.
14. How do I choose the right photovoltaic system for my needs?
Your energy consumption.
Available roof or ground space.
Budget and incentives.
Future energy needs (e.g., electric vehicles).
Consultation with a professional installer.
