Solar energy is a modern efficient and green technology that can help you save money on power bills as well as have a more environmentally friendly house. A 320 watt solar panel set might supply enough power for the entire house or seriously decrease the amount of energy you buy from your power provider. Bravo Electro would supply you with power supplies that would help you regulate the power you get from your solar panels.

What you need to know before buying a solar panel:

  1. Many countries support households investing in new technology; so, you will be able to get some incentives when have installed solar panels on the roof of your house. Often, the government offers to count a certain percentage of the system’s cost to reduce tax payments on the year when the solar system was installed.
  1. Solar batteries require very little maintenance; they don’t need repair or any serious additional investments after installation. Solar battery systems can produce electricity with insignificant loss of productivity for 25 years and more. The guarantee for the batteries normally covers 25 years. The reason being they are very durable. An inventor, which transforms the power produced by the batteries, will probably have to be replaced after 10-15 years of use.
  1. When going for solar energy, you have an option to be independent of your local power provider. To do so, you will have to invest in batteries that accumulate the energy produced by the batteries. This clearly requires more investment. But it is not necessary. It is possible to connect batteries through the inventor to your existing home power chain. The energy produced by the batteries will be consumed first. At the moment when domestic appliances need more energy than your solar batteries produce or at night, when they don’t produce energy at all, you will still be able to use the power supplied by your provider. 
  1. If you don’t invest in batteries to accumulate the energy, it is possible to sell the excess of the power produced by the batteries, which wasn’t immediately consumed by the household to neighbors or the power company itself. Tariffs and legal permission options vary from country to country and have to be checked with a local supplier of energy. 
  1. It is not necessary to buy batteries; some companies offer to lease them. The lease contract is typically a long-term one, and, often, it is quite difficult to get out of it. So, the price and conditions of the lease contract have to be carefully studied and compared with the cost of a purchase.
  1. The difference between expensive and cheaper batteries is not only about brands’ names but also about the efficiency of the batteries and warranty support of the equipment. When you decide to install 320 watt solar panels, you should compare a couple of different suppliers.
  1. Solar batteries work when the day is not that sunny and in winter but with smaller efficiency. You can install solar batteries in a variety of places, not necessarily the house’s roof. What matters is the angle at which the solar panel is fixed and if the surface can hold the weight of a system. An angel of 30 degrees is about optimum, but it varies from country to country a bit and has to be verified with an installation company. Solar panels installed on the southern side of the roof will produce more energy than batteries installed on the western and eastern sides. It is important that other buildings or trees don’t shade your batteries. Otherwise, the efficiency will be significantly reduced. 

Solar batteries are not a solution that proves its efficiency immediately. It requires a serious initial investment. Over time, it gives an opportunity to save money and be more independent of the power supply companies. It requires consideration, but the final result is rewarding.
