Your Questions About Why Solar Panels Are Good

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Mary asks…

why do solar panels work better when they are cool?

Henry Dover answers:

The electrical resistance of conductors rises with the temperature. This causes a greater loss of energy that is wasted heating the conductors.

Maria asks…

Why is it better to have solar panels face west rather than east?

Solar Panels should face west or south. Facing a solar panel south makes sense since we’re in the Northern Hemisphere. Why west though? Is it because the air in the west is warmer (having been warmed by more daylight) and therefore absorbs less sunlight, letting more energy get to the solar panel???

Henry Dover answers:

Solar panels should never be pointed west or east. They should be set to absorb as much day time solar energy as possible from both east and west so that means SOUTH only! Be sure there is no shading from trees in your location or you woun’t benefit from full energy output. I recommend you pick up a issue of “HOME POWER” magazine and become familiar with how to do installations. In addition many solar supply houses have free information for the installation of solar power systems.
