The Solar: A Ray of Sunshine

Have you ever wondered if there could be a source of energy that does not use fossil fuel and does not get you such a long bill at the end of the month?
Well, there is a way that can give you enough energy to live a sustainable life without even destroying our planet. The answer is the almighty sun which produces 173,000 terawatts (trillion watts) of solar energy continuously, whoa!!! Right? That’s more than 10,000 times we need for the entire earth. And this energy is completely renewable at least for the next 5 billion years…
Let’s come and see how Solar can be a ray of sunshine

Here is how we get electricity traditionally (by burning fossil fuel)

There are power stations all around the world. Which have massive machines where they burn coal which rotates a motor and then that motor creates electricity. And burning coal releases carbon dioxide into the air. Around 15 billion tonnes of co2 is released each year just for generating electricity.
And here is how we get electricity by solar panels
Solar panels work by turning light energy into electric energy. This doesn’t release any harmful waste in the process of electricity generation.
So it just sits there and turns sunlight into electricity? Yes, that’s exactly what it does.
And if you are wondering will solar panels can produce enough electricity for you and how much electricity you consume?
Well, that varies from person to person, so here is a general calculation of What an average family uses:

ApplianceDaily Uses in hrs.WattsUnits per dayCost (in Rs.)
1. 10 LED bulbs (10 watts each)5hrs.5000.53 Rs.
2. 2 fan (100 watts each)24hrs.48004.828 Rs.
3. 2 TV (100 watts each)5hrs.5000.53 Rs.
4. 1 computer (200 watts)10hrs.2000212 Rs.
5.1 fridge (500 watts)10hrs.5000530 Rs.
TOTAL76 Rs.

And that turns into Rs27,740 for a year that much money you can save just by switching on solar panels.
Ok, now you feel like you want solar panels in your life? of course you do.

But, here is the big question now.

How would you get that, and what are the complications of installations and everything?

There are two ways

First, you can contact a solar power providing company which will then come to your home and give you the best services according to your needs. This is best if you are not a very techy sort of person and want to be away from all sorts of technical blah blah.
Another way is that you do it on your own. Like calculating how much is your consumption and what is your need. Then ask for that certain services which are just best for you. By this, you can save lots of money, but you will have to have some technical knowledge.
