You can actually get a higher power yield or efficiency out of your solar panels once you take note of the importance of these parameters during your solar panel installation. By Engr. Ajiboye: How to make use of PV modules parameter during Installation for higher Efficiency. ∆= out-put power/input Power ∆ array efficiency Out-put power= […]

OK, I feel this article is important because often times when we as a company send out quotation to a client, they will wonder why they should use a registered company when there are electricians that may be able to install solar on the roof. I will try as much as possible not to write […]
The cost of electricity is high. But we need electrical energy to run our day to day task, so we can not afford not to pay for it. what if we have a cheap alternative to the grid or generator set that is very affordable and readily available? The answer is renewable energy or solar […]

Zero Energy and Energy Plus Buildings Basics
By Engr. Ajiboye Alasolewu. Zero energy buildings produce at least as much energy as they consume on an annual basis. They do this by incorporating state-of-the-art energy efficiency and renewable energy technologies. There are also buildings that produce a surplus of energy over the year. They are called energy-plus buildings. These buildings, along with zero energy […]

This is how solar panels work
Before you even think about installing solar panels, you should know how solar panels work in the first place. At StopLearn.com, we just don’t want you to graduate as a solar panel installer, but you should also understand the theory or working principle behind your skill. So now the big question is… How do Solar […]
Understanding how solar power system and its components work together In this lesson, we will introduce all the components needed for a solar system installation and you will learn how they work together. This includes: Solar panels Solar charge controllers Deepcycle batteries Inverters Accessories etc. Watch video below!
Solar charge controllers are indispensable in a solar power system installation. The solar panel generates electricity, but the problem here is that the power generated by the solar power is not regulated. This electrical power goes straight into the battery and without regulation, it will over charge the battery and damage it. So the solar […]
