Solar Panels in Lahore

Why should the sun only be used to convert its light into electricity with the help of solar Panels?

Solar energy when so-called solar panels are used. This is a module that is mounted on the roof of the building, similar to a solar system. The module consists of a large area housing tiny pipes through which water flows. The sun now has the task to heat the water in these pipes. The water thus heated can then be stored in special storage elements, at least for a certain time.

It is important to know that solar collectors - which are also referred to as solar thermal systems - today are generally not yet able to cover the entire heat requirement of a single-family home. They are thus particularly suitable as a supplement to an already existing heating system and can thus help to save up to a quarter of the heating energy.

Of course, it depends on the calculation of the system on whether the solar panels are only intended to heat the hot water needed in the building, or whether they should additionally also support the heating system. In the latter case, one expects an area requirement of about 4 m² per person living in the household.

Advantages of solar panels:

It is possible to generate both hot water and to support an existing heating system.

The solar energy can be used directly, that means without further transformations.

Solar thermal systems enjoy a variety of funding options.

Disadvantages of solar panels:

Only about 25% of the hot water demand can be covered by such a system.

The hot water can only be stored for a limited time.

The system is relatively complex in construction and maintenance, and therefore quite expensive.
