Solar Energy Power

Carole Said:

Can Solar Energy power the entire house?

We Answered:

Most of the energy used in a home is for heating, air-conditioning and water heating. All of these can be provided for by solar thermal collectors which are a fraction of the cost of solar PV so yes you can economically power the entire house by covering your baseline power consumption by solar thermal and the remainder with grid tied photo-voltaic. Don't bother with battery systems because it takes twice as much energy to charge a battery as they will hold and they never hold them for long, just sell your surplus to the utilities and buy it back when needed.
