A Few Facts First a few facts; solar radiation incident on earth’s surface is weak. As such solar photovoltaic cells can at best convert anywhere between 16% to 20% of this incident energy or sunlight into electricity only. This low efficiency coupled with multiple issues like cable loss, temperature variation, […]

The mounting of solar panels solely depends on the location where solar panels are going to be installed. Generally, solar photovoltaic panels are mounted on the rooftops using metal frames and bolts, that removes the need for additional structure to support solar panels. However, in some cases, a building’s roof […]
