Nancy asks… Why you do not see many people in the US use solar water heater? is it because of its weight on the roof? What is the life expectancy for the solar water heater. Normal roof warranty is 20 years. It would be too much trouble to disconnect the solar panel cum water tank and re-roof with shingles. Henry Dover answers: I checked into Solar panels for my home and wattage of electricity used. It would cost $26000 just for the system. I would still have to have it installed and I live...

I wanted to buy solar panels but this guy told me one will just power one light bulb what I want to know is how much thay cost and is it true that if more power leaves your house than goes in the power company has to send u a check The “true” cost of solar panels for a solar electric system on a residential house is largely determined by rebates and incentives. The current market rate for a solar electric system is around $8-10 per installed Watt. How many Watts you need is determined by your... Read Full Story

Sandra asks… Are solar panel prices ever going to come down? They’ve been around for a long time, it would be nice if ,like other technologies photovoltaic cell cost would slide. Henry Dover answers: They are coming down and more states are helping with rebates. My break even time frame is about 6 years for my system, it would have been closer to 10 without the rebates. If you consider my system is guaranteed for 25 years, I’ll be getting 19 years of free energy and the electric rates go up... Read Full Story

Sandy asks… If a typical home uses 390 kWh of electricity per month, how many square meters of solar cells would be requir? In a sunny location, sunlight has a power density of about 1 kW/m2. Photovoltaic solar cells can convert this power into electricity with 15% efficiency. If a typical home uses 390 kWh of electricity per month, how many square meters of solar cells would be required to meet its energy requirements? Assume that electricity can be generated from the sunlight for 8 hours... Read Full Story
