Energy rating increase with solar thermal systems

Hey friends. How you’re all going these days?

Do you have any idea about solar thermal systems? This helps you to increase energy rating.

There has been a lot of interest on renewable energy system for home usage. Many people are starting to be aware about energy costs. This effect happens just because of price increases in gasoline that has created a lot of hardship for car owners. Will house owners also have to face the same problem in future? Nobody have the answer of this question. The best idea is you have to prepare yourself then waiting fir the issue to begin.

One form of renewable energy setup is a home solar thermal system. Our homes are exposed to abundant free energy from the sun. The challenge is to create a system to capture the free energy and utilize it on our electrical components. Photovoltaic or solar cells are used to convert the sun energy to electricity. Solar cells used to be expensive making a home solar system impractical in the past. Luckily, the cost of solar cells has dropped substantially due to technology advancement in the production process.

Now again the question is how solar thermal systems work? The concept of a home solar thermal system is quite simple. What you will need is a solar array to collect the sun ray and the array is connected to a charge controller. Next the batteries are connected to an inverter where it converts DC to AC current. The AC electricity is then connected to the home main power panel and the electricity is distributed throughout house.
