How long can solar panels last and how can we extend its life?
This depends on the solar panel material to decide, first of all, if the exterior material is PET in about 3-5 years, ETFE in about 5-6 years, glass in about 20-25 years, the years mentioned here, not to this time will not work, solar panels will be used as its conversion power decay and reduce the time, perhaps after reaching these years, he will still work, just with Compared to before, only 10-20% of the power generation is left.
It has been studied before that solar panels naturally generate less power over time. This reduced power output is called the degradation rate. The median degradation rate of solar panels is about 0.5%, which means that the power output of solar panels will decline at a rate of 0.5% per year.
There are several ways to increase the power output of solar panels and extend their operational life. Some of these methods include
Reduce the use of extreme weather use, the temperature is too high or perhaps too low weather will damage the internal structure of solar panels to some extent. Adhere to the solar panel exterior clean and neat, do not have debris or perhaps destructive materials in the exterior, or simply form a scratch, affecting the solar panel power generation power. The accumulation of dirt, pollen, leaves and bird droppings can affect the power of your solar panels. While rain is generally sufficient to clean your panels, if you find that your panels are not operating at full capacity, you may want to consider a professional cleaning.
Ensure that your panels are monitored and protected regularly. A customary protection check will help to maintain your solar system's panel function, meter, inverter and other components operating at maximum power Select a suitable solar panel material of good quality for long-lasting use.
