Frequently Asked Questions

Here we have provided some relevant information regarding the functionality of Nevana energy. If you have any other questions, please get in touch using our contact details.

How does solar power work?

Solar power works by converting sunlight into electricity using solar panels. When sunlight hits the solar panels, it generates direct current (DC) electricity. This DC electricity is then converted to alternating current (AC) by an inverter, which powers your home or business. Any excess energy can often be sent back to the grid, depending on your local energy provider’s policy.

 

Will solar panels work on cloudy days?

Yes! Solar panels still generate electricity on cloudy days, although at a reduced output. Modern solar panels are highly efficient and can capture indirect sunlight. However, they produce the most electricity on clear, sunny days.

How much will I save by going solar?

Savings vary depending on your location, energy usage, and system size. Most customers see a reduction in their electricity bills and save thousands of dollars over the lifetime of their system. You can also take advantage of tax credits and incentives, which make going solar even more cost-effective.

 

Is financing available for solar installations?

Yes, many financing options are available, including loans, leases, and power purchase agreements (PPAs). We work with financing partners to help you find the best plan that suits your budget and needs.

What maintenance do solar panels require?

Solar panels require very little maintenance. Occasionally, you may need to clean them to remove dust, debris, or snow. Most panels come with a warranty of 20-25 years, and they are designed to withstand various weather conditions.

What if I sell my home?

If you sell your home, you may be able to transfer the solar panel ownership to the new owner, depending on the financing arrangement. Homes with solar installations are often valued higher, and buyers are increasingly interested in energy-efficient, lower-cost energy solutions.

 

What happens during a power outage?

If your solar system is connected to the grid and does not have battery storage, it will shut off during a power outage to ensure safety for utility workers. However, if you have a battery storage system, you can continue to power essential appliances during outages.

How long will my solar panels last?

Solar panels are highly durable and typically have a lifespan of 25-30 years. After that, they may continue to produce electricity at a reduced efficiency. We offer warranties to ensure peace of mind over the lifespan of your system.

Is my roof suitable for solar panels?

Most roofs are suitable for solar installation, though factors like the angle, shading, and roof material may impact the design. Our team will assess your roof and provide a tailored solution that maximizes energy production.
