FAQ:

Is My Roof Good for Solar?

Are you worried because you want to install a solar system but don’t know how many solar panels you can install?

Are you worried that the solar panels on your roof will be blown away by strong winds?

Are you also wondering whether your home needs an energy storage battery? What capacity of energy storage battery is most suitable?

What Forms a Solar Panel System?

Solar panel systems are robust. Solar panels can be a massive asset to your home if correctly installed and maintained. Four main components make up your solar panels:

• Solar photovoltaic cell panels work to convert solar energy into power and electricity.
• Inverters convert DC electricity to AC electricity.
• Racking and mounting hardware fit your panels to a roof or surface with the best possible exposure to the sun.
• Performance monitoring technology provides data by tracking and monitoring your solar system's electricity output and maintenance needs.

How Solar Panels Work?

Here is the basic rundown of how solar panel systems work:

• During the day, solar cells inside your solar panels absorb power from the sun.
• Cell circuits gather that energy and convert it into direct current energy (DC).
• The direct current energy travels through an inverter and transforms the energy into usable alternating current (AC) electricity.
• The alternating current electricity can then be used as an electricity source, stored for later use, or recycled back to the grid.

Factors Affecting the Solar Design Process

• the area and structure of the surface they are being installed on,
• energy needs,
• sun angles,
• location,
• local regulations,
• and much more, like your budget.

The solar design and installation process includes

1. Initial assessment and solar system modeling
2. Site surveying
3. Final solar design blueprint creation
4. Permits and permissions
5. Installation of solar racking and solar panels
6. Electrical interconnection
7. Monitoring setup
8. Final inspections and solar system activation/commissioning

Advantages of PVkingdom’s design solutions

• We have the experience and personnel to design and install.

      Since the company was founded, PVkingdom has completed nearly 100 solar power projects of various sizes, with a total installed capacity of more than 50MW.

      Besides, PVkingdom has a team of highly educated and professional designers. Whether they are electrical engineers or structural engineers, they all have rich industry experience and practical experience.

• Advanced technology

      Whether it is a commercial or residential project, PVkingdom uses advanced computer modeling software to estimate the number of photovoltaic panels to be laid by viewing satellite images of the roof. Our solar modeling system takes into account the location of the project, the optimal tilt and orientation of the panels, and potential shading from nearby trees and other obstacles.
