Frequently Asked Questions
How does a solar PV system work?
Solar panels convert sunlight into electricity. The electricity can be used to power your home or business, while excess energy can be stored in a battery or managed according to the system configuration.
How long does installation take?
Installation time depends on the size and complexity of the system, as well as the property and installation conditions. The exact timeframe can be discussed during the planning stage.
Do solar systems require maintenance?
Solar systems generally require limited maintenance. Regular inspections and checks can help ensure that the system continues to operate reliably and efficiently.
Can I use solar energy at night?
Solar panels do not produce electricity without sunlight. However, with battery storage, excess energy produced during the day can be stored and used later, including during the evening.
How do I know what size solar system I need?
The appropriate system size depends on your electricity consumption, property characteristics and energy goals. ElSunPower can assess your requirements and help determine a suitable system configuration.
