Solar PV - Photovoltaic Solar Panels Installation

What is Solar PV?

Solar PV stands for 'solar photovoltaic'. Solar PV panels harness sunlight and the sun's radiation as well, turning it into solar electricity to power a house or a commercial building. A solar PV system is made up of panels consisting of thin layers of silicon. As soon as the sun's radiation or light hit the PV panels, they convert it to DC electricity. A converter then converts this AC electricity, which can be used to power the home. An export meter is also installed with all Solar Choice Solar PV installations. This allows consumers generating surplus solar electricity, to sell this back to the grid. And under the Feed In Tariff (explained below) to be introduced in April 2010, there has never been a more profitable time to sell back solar electricity.
