Solar Power Systems Review




Green energy such as wind power and solar power are gaining more and more attention all over the world. The government has announced policies over solar power. With the new policies, we can cut our power bill tremendously. To Build Solar power systems at home are practical.
I’ve done some research on solar power systems recently. There are 3 main technology used in American:

  • Crystalline silicon technology

  • Thin-file technology

  • Concentrator silicon technology

  • There are mainly 3 sectors in the market:
  • Grid-connected distributed PV systems, you can put the panels in the order whatever you want;

  • Grid-connected centralized PV systems,you may put the panels in one place in the same order;

  • Off-grid stand-alone systems, you can use it in independent situations, such as rural areas, military usage or while camp.


  • SHS (Sharp’s solar small home systems) are a series of small home solar panels systems. With Sharp 80 Watt solar power control systems collecting energy one day, you can run a 50W rated colored TV for 2 hours, a 8W lighting 5 hours and a 2W radio for 5 hours. With no DIY solar panels knowledge, you can still build your solar panels for home. Sharp solar panels have great support team.

    There are DIY solar panels experts in the world , such as David, an author from EarthEargyForHome. If you are a fan of DIY, you can use home-made or collected materials to build your own solar panels for home. The most typical thing for DIY is the cheap price. We can’t make some material such as silicon material at home. The budget may be from less than $100 to several hundred based on what material you get.
