The Solar Power Installation Process

Commercial solar panel installations require considerable forethought and preparation in order to ensure the maximum benefit and return on investment. When deciding if solar energy is the right choice for your business, there are a few key factors you need to consider before beginning the installation process.

Some of the key considerations include:

  • Location: Location affects sunlight exposure, as well as environmental factors such as wind and temperature throughout the year.
  • Cost: Installing a commercial solar system can be expensive and many businesses do not have adequate funds saved up for such an endeavor.
  • Grid Behavior: Installing a power system that interacts with the local grid can result in soaring costs if it does not function properly or unexpected costs from when utility companies charge higher rates depending on how much energy is produced by your system at certain times during the day.

To help reduce these additional costs, it is important to understand how your facility’s grid functions in order to effectively plan and design an optimal Solar Energy System.

Benefits of Commercial Solar Installations

Commercial solar panel installations offer consumers numerous benefits. Most prominently, they can help reduce monthly utility bills significantly through the use of clean and renewable energy.

Additionally, government incentives are often available for businesses that invest in this technology, which could mean cost savings in the initial investment and over time.

Commercial solar panel installations are a cost-effective way for businesses to reduce energy consumption and improve their environmental footprints. As with any other energy project, there are many different steps involved in the process of solar panel installation to ensure a successful project. Below is an overview of each step in the commercial solar panel installation process.

  1. Site Assessment: After determining the appropriate space, a site assessment will be conducted to measure site factors such as sun radiation levels, shading situations, existing infrastructure availability, and equipment compatibility.
  2. Project Design: Good design of your commercial solar panel system is essential for long-term efficiency and performance that meet your organization’s energy needs and budget considerations.
  3. Installation Planning & Permitting: Once an optimal design is developed, an experienced team experienced in commercial solar installations can plan out components needed (electrical cabling/wiring etc.), safety protocols and any necessary permits that may apply before beginning the installation process at your facility or property location.
  4. Solar Panel Installation: Upon approval of plan documents by local government agencies, permitting has been obtained and components have been procured then physical installation of the system can begin according to applicable safety standards by experienced professionals with expertise in these matters.
  5. Connecting Your System to The Grid: This step involves connecting your completed solar panel system with any existing or new utility company meters at facilities or location where permitted as per local regulations. Electrical technicians ensure all connections meet specifications prior to energizing systems.
  6. Maintenance Planning & Monitoring: Downstream monitoring should be developed for long-term maintenance plans that take into account performance expectations along with warranty items covered by manufacturers or installers. Experienced professionals can provide diagnostic evaluations when unique issues arise during operation which were not foreseen during initial assessment stages.

Commercial Solar Installation FAQs

How do you maintain solar panels?

Solar panel maintenance is essential in order to ensure the panels remain in excellent condition, so they can continue to produce power efficiently over their lifetime. The typical lifespan of a solar panel is 20 to 25 years, so it's important that the components are kept in proper working order throughout their life. Maintenance should be regularly scheduled, typically annually or bi-annually depending on the system’s size and location.

Common steps taken during a maintenance visit include:

  • Inspection of electrical connections
  • Inspection and cleaning of solar panels
  • Checking for any mechanical issues such as panel loosening
  • Checking for proper voltage exchange between each panel and inverter
  • Ensuring all monitoring hardware data is accurate with consistent transmissions being received
  • Measuring the output from each panel and comparing to expected performance metrics
  • Comparing the overall system output voltage is meeting safety standards
  • Test new replacement parts according to company guidance

How Do Commercial Solar Systems Work?

Commercial solar systems, also known as solar panels, work by converting energy from the sun into electricity.
