SOLAR PV
- Site assessment: A solar professional will evaluate your site to determine if it is suitable for solar PV installation. This involves assessing the roof’s orientation, shading, and structural integrity, as well as your electrical panel and utility connection.
- Design and engineering: Based on the site assessment, a solar designer will create a customized system design that maximizes energy production and fits your budget. This includes selecting the number and type of solar panels, inverters, and mounting hardware needed for the installation.
- Permitting and paperwork: Before installation can begin, you will need to obtain the necessary permits and approvals from your local building department, utility company, and homeowners association.
- Installation: Once all the permits and approvals are in place, the solar panels will be installed on your roof or on a ground-mounted system. This typically involves securing the mounting hardware to the roof or ground, installing the panels, and connecting them to the electrical system.
- Inspection and commissioning: After the installation is complete, a building inspector will inspect the system to ensure that it meets local building and electrical codes. Once the inspection is passed, the system will be connected to the grid and commissioned, which involves testing the system’s performance and ensuring that it is operating safely and efficiently.
- Ongoing maintenance: Solar PV systems require very little maintenance, but it is important to keep the panels clean and free of debris to maximize energy production. You should also have your system inspected periodically to ensure that it is operating at peak performance.
