Thousands of industrialists have turned to solar power generation in an effort to reduce energy consumption. Let’s explore 5 reasons why solar electric power systems will be an important part of our energy future.
Solar electricity is renewable. Sunlight is converted into electricity by photovoltaic cells. Whenever the sun shines, power generation is possible. There is no need to explore for or mine the source of solar electricity.
Electricity costs will be stable and controlled. Once a solar electric power system is installed, it will continue to produce "free electricity" for the next 20 to 25 years.
Solar power will work in just about all areas of the world. Unlike wind power, which is limited to areas that have an average wind speed of greater than 10 miles per hour, the sun shines everywhere. Clouds and, to a certain degree, smog will reduce the efficiency of solar panels, but power can be generated most days.
Sun power is nonpolluting. When the photons in sunlight hit the PV cells, electrons in the PV cells are broken loose, allowing them to flow as electricity. The process is confined to the solar panel and does not produce pollution as a fossil fuel power plant does.
A solar power system can be easily built and installed by the average industrialist. Anyone can drastically reduce the cost of going solar by building their own solar panels. Panels are the major cost of a solar electric power system, and building them can save up to 80 percent.
If you do not have any plans to switch to solar power, you might want to get in touch with an energy service company. Icopower ESCO is an independent Energy Service company which develops, implements, and in order to improve the energy efficiency technologies for facilities over 3 to 5 years, arranges its own project financing.
The mission of Icopower ESCO is to analyze, design, and implement energy efficiency solutions that will create value for facility owners and operators across all sectors in East Africa and beyond.The vision is to contribute to prosperity throughout the region; generating benefits for the economy, the environment, and for society according to the triple bottom line of sustainable development. They can also help you keep an eye on your electric power quality.
