6 FAQs about Photovoltaic module panels produced in Honiara

How do solar panels produce electricity in the Solomon Islands?

Solar PV panels produce most power when they are pointed directly at the sun. In the Solomon Islands, solar modules should face north for optimum electricity production. The orientation of the panels will often have a greater effect on annual energy production than the angle they are tilted at.

Are solar panels safe to use in Honiara?

Currently there are many solar panel systems safely and reliably delivering electricity to households and businesses across Australia. Most suburban homes in Honiara are connected to the electricity grid, which uses alternating current electricity (AC). However the electricity generated by solar panels is direct current (DC).

Can solar panels be connected to the Solomon Islands grid?

There is an increasing number of products and suppliers on the market, most of which will be able to be connected to the Solomon Islands grid. Solomon Power follows the Australian/ New Zealand standards for connection of solar panels to its electricity grid.

Which direction should solar panels face in the Solomon Islands?

In the Solomon Islands, solar modules should face north for optimum electricity production. The orientation of the panels will often have a greater effect on annual energy production than the angle they are tilted at. A minimum tilt of 10° is recommended to ensure self-cleaning by rainfall.

Are solar power systems a viable option for the Solomon Islands?

Solar power systems are now an affordable option for households looking to reduce their power bills and generate their own electricity. There is an increasing number of products and suppliers on the market, most of which will be able to be connected to the Solomon Islands grid.

How do solar PV panels work?

Solar PV panels on the roofs of homes and businesses generate clean electricity by converting the energy from sunlight. This conversion takes place within modules of specially fabricated materials that make up the solar panels. It is a straightforward process that requires no moving parts.
