How to Design a Shading Free Solar System Layout
When you’re about to start planning and designing a new large-scale solar project, it is important to take shading and energy losses into account. The goal of large-scale solar plants is to generate as much energy as possible. All the energy that has been generated will be converted into power that can be used by families, companies or solar car parks, for example. For this reason, it ...

The future of Solar Power
When you think of renewable energies, what do you think of? Hydro power? Wind energy? In fact, they have proven to be the most popular in recent years. Hydro power in its current form is the cheapest of the renewable energies. Wind power is the fastest growing. However, there is a renewable energy that is far more versatile and has the potential to achieve a higher ROI than the ones mentioned ...
