In this article we''ll explore the top five risks of solar energy, highlight why there''s a need for stronger industry standards in the renewables field and signpost you to extra resources and more information. 1. Severe
Homeowners are installing solar panels in increasing numbers and reaping the financial and environmental benefits. But some are still hesitant because of myths around cost, performance and durability of panels. Here, we debunk the most common myths so that you have all the facts you need before you pivot to panels
Some are put off by uncertainty about costs, others believe the installation will be disruptive and many worry that solar panels will be tricky to maintain. These were among the most common questions and concerns people had about getting solar panels, according to a government report in July 2021.
The solar industry has developed high-tech, anti-reflective coatings and ultra-transparent glass to improve panel efficiency and, in fact, solar panels are less reflective than many common building features, such as windows. When it’s not sunny, how will we have enough clean energy to power the country?
But fear not: The U.S. Department of Energy Solar Energy Technologies Office (SETO) is all about the facts. Let’s set the record straight so rumors and falsehoods don’t prevent you from reaping the benefits of solar energy. Here are some common myths and misconceptions: Myth #1: Solar only works when the sun is shining.
A 2021 study by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) projected that 40% of all power generation in the U.S. could come from solar by 2035. Solar’s current trends and forecasts look promising, with photovoltaic (PV) installations playing a major role in solving energy problems like carbon pollution and energy dependence.
The risks associated with the use of renewables are often overlooked and this poses serious problems for insurers. However, we are keen to support our customers and to provide guidance on how photovoltaic solar panel systems can be installed and used safely.
