Here’S How to Make Solar Panels

The current norms of the planet earth has forced men to make himself aware of the green energy and its fruits, and actually by today green energy is experiencing an ever-growing popularity specially in most of the develop countries of the world. This energy is quite healthy to be introduced both at your residence and workplace. Using thermal energy as a second source of power in the premises would be a great initiative both financially and environmentally.

The use of solar panels in storing and utilizing energy has helped people cut down their utility bills cost. Even some wise people say the experience of using solar panels becomes fantastic if they are made from your own hands and brain. To allow you build a solar panel yourself we have provided some information below.

Solar panels that own over 36 solar cells can ideally charge 12-volts, hmmm so this is a good size for us to start with. You are initially required to source these cells, which can be easily ordered from the internet.

Enclose the cells in a shallow box, this way we will get to learn its size, and make the box from some strong wood ideally plywood. Ensure that edges should not as high as to cast shadows on cells.

Into the bottom edge of the box you are using drill vent holes, this way most of the dew and rain would run out.

For the substrate of cells, cut and shape the wood. It needs to be fitted perfectly.

In order to protect the wood, paint the box and substrate from both sides.

Fit in the panel with a plexiglass cover.

Now, itâEUR(TM)s time for soldering cells together. With the help of a low-voltage soldering iron and silver solder - solder the negative and positive tabs.

When they are soldered, glue the strings onto the substrate. Remember! Only the middle part of cells has to be glued.

Make use of solar cell tabbing to link up and network all the strings present in cells. Now, test your panel and see whether it works.

With a caulking seal all the holes and then itâEUR(TM)s time to screw plexiglass cover onto the box.

ThatâEUR(TM)s all! You are all free to use your solar panel.

The process of building a solar panel at home naturally takes plenty of time and patience, but if the person is committed to give his or her best at this do-it-yourselfer âEUR" the project will go a long way!
