DELVING INTO SOLAR ENERGY LOSSES IN PV SYSTEMS

Solar photovoltaic (PV) systems harness sunlight to generate electricity, but several factors can contribute to energy losses. Various losses occur at different stages, from sunlight interception by solar panels to converting light into usable energy. One major source of loss is due to scattering of sunlight by panel surfaces and environmental fact

Solar Renewable Energy Certificates (SRECs) are a powerful tool for promoting the use of solar energy while providing financial incentives to solar system owners. In Virginia, the SREC market is growing rapidly, offering solar energy producers an opportunity to sell their SRECs and earn extra income. This article explains how SRECs work in Virginia
