Yes, with the proper solar installation made by Solus Energy, you can achieve so-called electrical independence. That is, you could have electricity without having to pay large electricity bills. It would be necessary to make a good study and dimensions of the consumption of your home, business or industry. In addition to, having the option of accompanying your solar panels with a hybrid electricity storage system (solar batteries) so that you have light in your priority circuits at all times, including nights.

The average lifespan of solar panels is about 25 years. This long useful life is achieved thanks to well-carried out maintenance, which you can request from the Solus Energy maintenance team.

It is true that an initial investment is necessary, but once you have, your panels will produce electricity for the next 25 years.

When there is no sun, in the case of the night, the solar panels will not be able to produce electricity; However, on cloudy days, solar panels can also produce electricity, since the panels can collect diffused light in the environment and transform it into electricity. Of course, the production will not be the same as a completely clear day, but you will still be able to generate electricity with your Solus Energy panels.

This depends on the type of installation and therefore the initial investment made. If we talk about installations connected to the grid, which is the most widespread type of solar installation in homes in our country, it can be amortized in a period between 7 and 10 years. As we said before, the useful life of the panels is about 25 years, so an installation that pays for itself in 10 years will generate benefits for the remaining 15 years.

This return time may vary depending on the installation, if it is more expensive or complex or if it is well or badly dimensioned, of course. Hence the importance of hiring a competent and responsible team like Solus Energy.

Whenever possible, the panels should be oriented appropriately to the geographical position in which the installation is located. In Central America, the greatest annual solar capture is achieved with a latitude inclination of the place and an orientation to the SOUTH (Azimuth 180º). If it is not possible to achieve that inclination and orientation, the position will have to be found. that comes closest to it to obtain the maximum performance from the installation.

Yes, it is possible to extend an already created solar installation. Before carrying out the extension, it must be verified, that the rest of the equipment in the installation can support higher solar generation power. Attention must also be paid to the characteristics of the panel, such as its voltage and power.

The position and orientation of the solar panels depend on several factors, such as the cast of shadows and the constraints of the environment. In general, a southerly orientation and an adequate inclination are sought for better performance. The choice between placing them vertically or horizontally will depend on the specific characteristics of the place. The decision is made after the analysis of the Solus technicians.

To calculate the number of solar panels needed, several data must be considered, such as the energy consumption of the home, the surface available for installation, the type of use of the home, and the geographical location. Using a calculator and taking these factors into account, the proper number of solar panels can be determined. But don't worry, at SOLUS we will do the calculations for you, at no additional cost.

Yes, it is advisable to maintain and clean the solar panels periodically to guarantee their optimum performance. Cleaning can be done with water and a soft brush, avoiding the use of corrosive chemicals. The best thing to do is to contact your technician to carry out the maintenance and avoid unnecessary issues.
