Rooftop Installation in Commercial Buildings to Meet Growing Demand of Electricity

Talking about green energy, solar power in commercial buildings is a much discussed and debated subject these days. Off-Grid system or rooftop solar panel installation in various commercial building can definitely serve the purpose of growing demand of electricity. By using solar panels, a rooftop battery can convert chemical energy into electrical energy for supplying uninterrupted power to a commercial building or site.

The good news is that most of the energy-starved nations across the world will soon be using the power of the sun to meet their energy requirements. Nature has bestowed us with abundance of sunlight to power up our homes and offices, so necessary steps in this direction can certainly help everyone to face and avert this energy crisis. Another reason to be happy is that the developed nations like US have offered to help developing or underdeveloped countries to explore solar power to bridge the growing demand-supply gap. Tropical countries that enjoys bright sunshine almost all year round can benefit a lot through solar energy, be it for domestic, public, or commercial purposes. Thus, in short we can say that we are moving in the right direction in harnessing renewable resources.

Installing Solar Roof Panels

Imagine your small factory with rooftop solar panels producing dependable solar energy for both your factory and your house. Installing a solar system is not rocket science and the best part is that you don't have to hire scientists for a simple roof job. A technician with basic knowledge of solar power products can get it installed for you and the cost is no longer a bottleneck. Solar technology is quite user-friendly and installing solar products like solar PV charge controllers and off-grid inverters is no more cumbersome and expensive.

Solar panels look just as normal rooftop tiles and in fact they can look better if they are well fitted. Easy handling and installation make them quite feasible, and they just occupy about 25% of the roof area. These panels can generate about 860 kilowatt hours per 100 square feet per annum in an area with about 6 peak sun hours per day.

The photovoltaic panels installed on the roof tops are used to generate electricity. They are best suited for smaller homes or small commercial facilities. The roof is the ideal place to install these panels so that they can catch more direct sunlight than other locations. The energy absorbed by the solar roof panels are stored in batteries, to power household appliances or provide electricity. There were times when these solar roof panels were mainly used in remote or locations far away from the local power grid. However, today with rising energy costs and a increasing environmental awareness, people across nations who have access to traditional electricity sources are also turning to solar energy. Nature always offers the best!
