Auswell Energy gives insight into how solar power works and the benefits it provides.
Solar panels are devices that convert light into electricity. They are a collection of solar cells, placed on a roof, to harness the light of the sun by working together to provide enough power to be useful. In Brisbane, solar power is primarily used in residential applications but is also popular in the workplace and commercial settings.
How do solar panels work?
Solar panels work by harnessing the light of the sun, converting sunlight into DC (direct current) electricity. The solar inverter then converts DC into AC (alternating current) power for use in your home.
Rather than drawing power from the electricity grid, your home appliances, such as your; fridge, dishwasher, and pool pumps, will use the power generated by your solar power, ultimately saving you money.
To make the most of your solar panels, Auswell Energy believes positioning is key. North-facing solar panels in Brisbane are optimal to be exposed to the most sunlight throughout the day. To further improve their performance, Auswell Energy ensures the solar panels are not obstructed by shade caused by trees, power lines, and other structures.
Many homes in Brisbane with solar power have smart meters, these meters track and record energy use, providing an accurate reading in your electricity billing. If your solar panels generate any excess electricity, it is sent back to the electricity grid, whereby you can receive a feed-in Tariff from Electricity Retailers. Meaning, you cannot only save money from installing solar panels, but you could also make money!
