1. Renewable Energy

Renewable energy is extracted from the natural resources for example: sunlight, rain, wind etc. Natural resources are obviously better than the fossil fuels as fossil fuels products adds harm into the ecosystem. Renewable energy resources are eco-friendly and harmless. Let’s explore two examples of renewable energy solutions which are: solar panel installations and heat pumps.

Solar Panel Installation

Solar panels are designed to capture sunlight and convert it into electricity. They are typically installed on the rooftop or places where sunlight can reach directly to the panels. Solar panel installation is an eco-friendly solution that meets the electricity demands of residents and commercial people

How Solar Panels Work:

• Photovoltaic Cells: Solar panel contain PV cells which are produced using semiconductor materials, typically silicon. These cells absorb daylight and create direct current (DC) electricity.
• Electron Excitation: Sunlight energizes electrons in the PV cells, making an electric current.
• Inverter Conversion: The DC electricity is sent to an inverter, which converts it to alternating current (AC) electricity for home or business use.
• Power Distribution: The converted AC electricity drives your apparatuses and lighting. Excess electricity can be put away in batteries or fed back into the grid for credits.

Heat Pumps

Heat pumps are also an eco-friendly solution and it works by extracting heat from the air, ground, or water sources outside the home and transferring it inside during colder months to warm the inside of the house. On the other hand, in warmer months it helps extract heat from the inside of the house and transfer it outside which results in a cooler environment for the home.

How Heat Pumps Work:

• Heat Exchange: Heat pumps extract heat from the air, ground, or water outside and transfer it inside throughout the colder time of year. In summer, they switch the cycle to cool your home.
• Refrigerant Circulation: A refrigerant fluid circles through the system, absorbing and delivering heat to accomplish the ideal temperature.
• Types: Incorporates air-source, ground-source (geothermal), and water-source heat pumps, each fit to various conditions and environments.
• Energy Efficiency: Known for high productivity, creating more energy than they consume.
