FAQs
Solar panels work by converting sunlight into electricity through a process called the photovoltaic effect. Each solar panel consists of many solar cells made of semiconductor materials like silicon. When sunlight hits the solar cells, it excites the electrons, creating an electric current. This direct current (DC) is then converted into alternating current (AC) by an inverter, making it usable for powering homes, businesses, and other electrical devices.
Cleaning solar panels is relatively simple. You can use a soft brush, sponge, or cloth with mild detergent and water to gently scrub away dirt, dust, and debris from the surface of the panels. Avoid using abrasive materials or harsh chemicals, as they can damage the panels. It’s best to clean the panels early in the morning or late in the afternoon to prevent water spots from forming due to the sun’s heat.
