solar panel
What side of my house should i put the solar panel on?
I am looking into putting a solar panel on my house, but i always get mixed up with which way the sun rises and sets in this country. What side of the house should the solar panel be put on?
Sorry, Im in England. Such a doofus sometimes.
No matter where you are on earth, the sun rises in the east and sets in the west. In the norther hemisphere the sun tracks more to the south that is why positions of panels and windows to the south take advantage of the sun the best.
You need to consider not only the direction but the tilt of the solar panels too in order to get maximum efficiency.
I have included sole links about solar position and positioning solar panels. Hope it helps.

In todays increasing environmentally conscious society, reducing our carbon footprint is seen as a social responsibility. Furthermore, as traditional sources of power become evermore expensive, energy derived from renewable sources are becoming more attractive and sought after.
Herein lies the beauty of using the most efficient solar panels we can find as a means of providing some or all of our electrical power. Furthermore, the accessibility and affordability of efficient solar panels means that they are no longer looked upon as quirky but rather as innovative, sensible and ultimately cost-effective.
It is estimated, given the world governments’ increasing commitment to the use of renewable energy sources, that by the year 2030 some 14% of the world’s energy will be provided by solar power.
The term solar panel actually describes two types of device, to give them their technical names:
1. Solar photovoltaic modules
2. Solar thermal collectors.
Solar thermal collectors use the sun’s energy to heat

What is the best solar panel available, and what company does the best job for a grid tie system.?
Thinking the sharp 235 is near the top.
Hey Hockey, here’s my short answer, there is no “Best.” Not trying to let the wind out of your sails, but it’s like asking, “What’s the best car to buy?” If you have kids, the minivan is hard to beat, but it sucks as a 4 wheel drive SUV. solar panels all use the basic same type technology, but to compare features goes a whole lot deeper into the rabbit hole. If you live in Chicago and have limited roof space, it’s probably worth spending the extra buck and getting Sunpower units, they produce the most per square foot. If you want more hours of energy without tracking, single crystal is the way to go. If space is not an issue and you’re using rolls

solar panels and how they work
Hi,
I am thinking about getting solar panels installed. #1 I like to cut my electric bill. #2 I like to eliminate my oil boiler and use some sort of electric boiler.
I use about 15000-30000 KW per hour( winter-summer). My oil bill is around 600 month winter time. Over all i pay around 4000 a year. My electric bil now is around 2000-2500 year. Is this possible?
I live in NY. I heard you can get up to $35000 rebate from LIPA( Electric company) and 2k from federal and 5k from State( is the state or federal every year?, how does that work). Any help is appreciated.
There is a variety of information available on the internet regarding solar panels. You didn’t say if you were interested in installing a photo-voltaic system to generate electricity, or if you wanted a passive solar system.
From what I’ve read, the method

Where to buy small wind turbine and solar panels.?
I need to get a small wind turbine and solar panel to power my pond with a pump and filter. I have searched forever but all is over 200 watts and costs a lot. I need something to power a car battery and is affordable. Please help me find one that can be purchased in England.

How Do Solar Panels Work? $28 Among recent concerns about the use of nonrenewable fuels such as oil and coal, scientists have been trying to discover alternative ways of making energy and electricity available. Sunlight is a free, unlimited resource that hits the Earth with more energy in an hour than the people of the world use in a year. The colorful How Do Solar Panels Work? reveals |
