Harnessing Residential Solar Energy
There are many ways to harness solar energy in residential, but the two are distinguished by their technology and their use: to use solar energy to heat water and generate electricity.
One of the most common questions I receive in my mailbox for me is how much to install solar on my house? And then try to resolve those doubts.
Solar energy for water heating (DHW, domestic hot water).
This option is the cheapest of the two options because you can build your own solar collector for less than $ 100 or buy collectors manufactured. Speaking in general terms that a solar hot water enough for four showers cost around $ 750.
These solar panels can save up to 90% of gas consumed in your home, so the investment is recovered on average in a year and a half to two years, but with the rise so high that all fuels are having fossils, some people have commented that they had a return in their investment in less than a year thanks to savings generated by their solar installation.
Solar photovoltaic (generating electricity)
Investing in residential photovoltaic solar energy is an investment for a longer period, as average as the savings and to generate your electricity consumption, is an investment that is recovered in about 10 years, but taking into account that have a life useful for at least 30 years, we are talking about that 2 / 3 parts of his life practically generating money.
The million dollars question is, how much does a solar photovoltaic installation for my home will cost?
To have a precise number is necessary to make a contribution, but on average in the industry are driving the $ 10 the number of watt installed. I.e. 1.500 watts you need to keep your house 100% pure solar energy requires an investment of $ 15,000, although it was a considerable sum, it is a long term investment.
