Frequently asked questions

How do solar panels work?

Photovoltaic panels convert sunlight into electricity through the photoelectric effect. Solar rays eject electrons from silicon atoms, creating an electric current.

How much energy does a solar panel produce?

1 kW of solar panels in Ukraine produces approximately 1000-1200 kWh of energy per year, depending on the region and orientation of the panels.

Do panels work in cloudy weather?

Yes, but with lower efficiency. In cloudy weather, efficiency drops by 50-80%, but panels still produce energy.

How long do solar panels last?

Modern solar panels have a warranty of 25 years and can operate for 30-40 years. Efficiency decreases by about 0.5% per year.

⚙ Under the hood

This simulation allows users to explore the complex relationship between solar panel orientation, sunlight intensity, and the resulting electrical energy output. By adjusting key parameters like panel tilt angle and light intensity, you can observe how these factors impact energy conversion efficiency.
