Here is more on what Borg Energy, a private company actively working towards renewable energy has to say on US renewable update. The goal now is to switch to cleaner fuels and energy for the world. It's not just in the area of energy but likewise in other sectors. It's aimed at promoting efficiency and doing away with waste that contaminated the environment too. It's a drive for a more sustainable earth.

As the world is advancing rapidly with little or no delay, it's important to know that the sector of renewable energy is fast advancing too. The experts of Borg Energy are sharing about the updates of May 2021, regarding the renewable energy in the US.

The U.S Department of Energy (DOE) recently has mentioned to the public their plans to make sure that more maximum solar and storage are installed in societies where their income is moderate or low. Not only that, the department has also made a pledge to assist these societies with about $15 million as technical support in order to help them receive and contain investors. The U.S Department of Energy (DOE) has some goals that the department is established on. This creativity and financial backing for these societies is one way to achieve their equity and diversity goals.

One of the agendas is to make sure that by 2035, there will be availability of clean energy to everyone. This agenda looks impossible but a lot of work is being put into making sure that clean energy is available to every community soon enough. Some private energy organizations are already committed to directly or indirectly helping the U.S Department of Energy (DOE) to make sure this happens. Of course it will cost a lot to establish this in some parts of the country and some challenges will be faced too but it will all happen with time.

Borg Energy experts are discussing here about the three areas that will determine the industry’s fortunes in the coming year: business trends, technology, and government policy.

Business trends

One of the biggest decision points for solar customers is price. For installers, the price they are able to offer depends on two main factors: hard costs and soft costs. Hard costs include the costs of materials, namely the solar panels and solar inverters. Soft costs include non-material expenses like customer acquisition, permitting, and the actual installation of your system, says experts of Borg Energy.

The hard costs associated with solar have been falling steadily over the past decade, dropping 50 percent from 2015 through 2019, as equipment manufacturers have improved the efficiency and scale of their operations. This decline in hard costs has been a big driver of the decreasing solar prices in recent years.

Soft costs, on the other hand, have remained relatively constant, as skilled labor remains scarce and the permitting process remains mired in red tape. This holds huge potential for improvement in 2021, especially with the launch of instant permitting tools like SolarApp.

Technology

On the Energy Sage Marketplace and beyond, an emerging trend is pairing solar with complementary products, such as energy storage systems, EV chargers, or air source heat pumps (ASHPs), a form of electrified heating and cooling that can be powered with solar. This movement toward “solar-plus” makes sense–if you install a solar panel system, you’ll want to get the most out of it. Greater electrification helps to increase your solar savings, as it allows the electricity produced by your solar system to stretch further, lowering the cost you pay to power your various devices. This is also a boon for the environment, as electrification plus solar will significantly reduce carbon emissions.

Experts of Borg Energy expect this trend to continue growing in 2021, as EVs continue to proliferate and as more home and business owners add storage, in particular, to their solar installations. Few solar companies offer all, or even most, of these additional technologies, but those that do (like Tesla) have found this to be a very successful strategy.

Automatic backup power is very essential when there are power outages and this is where solar power generators come in, says experts of Borg Energy. With the rising shortage of electricity across the globe as the population increased, it's not surprising that solar power generator demand has skyrocketed across the globe.

It's a device that works together with solar power which uses energy derived from the sun to produce voltage. This generator gives you a reliable power supply without having to deal with environmental pollution, unreliable power supply, noise and many more. Solar power generators come in different sizes, capacities, and types. Hence, there is always something to meet consumers’ needs, requirements and budgets.

Here, Borg Energy, a company harnessing solar and wind power and providing micro power plant to the masses take a look into the market of solar power generators.

What influences the rapid adoption of solar power generators?

The basic set-up of a solar generator includes a solar panel, rechargeable battery, inverter and solar power. In this, the solar panel converts the energy from sunlight using photovoltaics which is then stored into batteries for later use, says experts of Borg Energy.

This means the energy is mainly from what Mother Nature has blessed us with- the sun. Therefore, it is free and there is access to unlimited sources of energy once you are in an area with an optimal amount of sun. All that is required is the cost of investment which is also affordable.

Moreover, the rising concerns of environmental pollution and climate change and the increasing awareness of its effects have got countries, governments and the people to move towards clean energy. This is one of the major reasons why solar power has risen in importance.

Renewable energy such as hydro, wind and solar power are now answers to global warming as they lower the emissions of greenhouse gases. Dependency on fossil fuels diminishes and the government keeps encouraging the adoption of renewable energy through various incentives and tax rebates. These, in turn, have greatly reduced the price of solar panels and generators which has contributed to its market growth.

What are the types of solar power generators?

The two main types of solar power generators are on-grid and off-grid. While the on-grid is connected to the general utility grid, the off-grid is like a standalone and is not connected in any way to the grid's power system or utility company. Each has its own advantages and disadvantages including requirements and capabilities.

According to the experts of Borg Energy, there are methods of protecting solar panels. In context, the homeowners spend plenty of money in maintaining the upfront system. Borg Energy is doing great work these days by implementing protective means in giving the best guard to the solar panels for the right utilization of the energy. Below are a few tips mentioned for the effective protection of your solar panels.

Necessary to Guard the Issues

Once you set up the panel, there can be plenty of issues in the coming years. Most of the issues will not be covered by warranty protection. It means that you will have to pay money for repairing and maintenance says experts of Borg Energy. Unexpected expenses are cropping up in time, and these can easily eat up the solar savings and drive back the payback portion of your investment. Thus, it is best to go for the cheaper alternative. There is no point waiting for the adversities to happen. You can take all the protective steps in rather protecting the PV mechanism and maximize the solar returns as well.

Taking the Right Care

Borg Energy can take to solar PV monitoring for the solar installation to function perfectly. For this reason, all elements should be in perfect sync. From the point of wiring to the inverters and then to the panels, all things should be in place to make things functional in the long run. Any malfunctioning will cause a dip in the working of the PV system in specific. In certain cases, the solar installation can stop working eventually. Measures should be taken in advance for the perfect care and protection of the solar utility in general.

According to experts of Borg Energy, here are now several exciting new solar panel technologies either in the pipeline or already on the market. These promising technologies will revolutionize the way we think about not just solar, but energy production in general.

Read on with Borg Energy to find out more about the exciting new solar panel technologies.

According to experts of Borg Energy, if photovoltaic panels are placed on reservoirs and other water bodies, they offer even greater efficiency as well as a plethora of other benefits.

Floatovoltaics are photovoltaic solar power systems created for floating on reservoirs, dams, and other water bodies. Floating solar farms can generate huge amounts of electricity without using valuable land or real estate. The installation costs of floating photovoltaic panels are less than land-based photovoltaic panels.

Building-integrated photovoltaics, as the name suggests, seamlessly blend into building architecture in the form of roofs, canopies, curtain walls, facades, and skylight systems. Unlike traditional solar PV panels, BIPV can be aesthetically appealing rather than a compromise to a building’s design.

Solar skins are a novel PV technology to integrate custom designs into solar panel systems says experts of Borg Energy. The solar skin technology is similar to the ad wraps displayed on bus windows.

According to the experts of Borg Energy India Pvt Ltd, renewable energy has positioned itself as the technology of choice for power generation capacity. The rapid adoption of solar energy can be traced to the low cost and the reduction in electricity bills, as well as saves environment. On top of that, there are various incentives and rebates homeowners enjoy.

However, these are not the only reasons why solar energy is the next big thing in the energy sector. Reducing reliance on fossil fuels while embracing solar energy is also good for the planet earth. They are clean, pure energy that derives power from the mother earth gift “the sun”. Which means they can help reduce pollution and improve health.

Borg Energy India Pvt Ltd, a company harnessing the power of solar and wind and providing micro power plants delves deeper into the benefits of solar energy on the environment.

It provides green renewable energy

This is obvious, solar energy is sustainable and as much as there is sun there will always be solar power. The photovoltaic technologies used by solar powers are clean, emission-free which helps in generating pure, green energy. This means these sources are already displacing the “dirty” fossil fuels. Plus, they are from natural sources, they are clean and they are available in abundance. That is why Borg Energy India Pvt Ltd prides itself on its innovative, efficient offering of micro plants that harness wind and solar power to thousands of customers globally. A great and continuous move towards environmental-friendly energy.

It reduces greenhouse gas emission

Traditional energy sources such as fossil fuels, coal and natural gas are go through burning, mining and combustion during conversion. All these releases carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas that leads to air pollution. This pollution is one of the earth’s greatest enemies and can lead to a whole lot of issues like global warming and risks to human health, nature and organisms. However, solar energy does not need to burn fossil fuels, reduce gas emission and allow cleaner air in the environment.

According to Borg Energy India Pvt Ltd, this green loan could be used by Australian customers to purchase and install a range of eligible small-scale renewable technology, including solar panels, battery packs, and electric vehicle charging stations at the property used as security for the existing home loan.

Australia’s Commonwealth Bank has announced it will offer its home loan customers up to $20,000 in low, fixed-interest finance to install rooftop solar systems, battery storage, electric vehicle chargers, or other eligible green technologies.

The new product, dubbed the CommBank Green Loan, was announced on Monday as part of the Big Four bank’s “commitment to the responsible global transition to net zero emissions by 2050,” a goal enshrined in the Paris climate agreement, but yet to be formally adopted by Australia’s federal government.

The initiative will start with an invitation-only pilot in February, in which select eligible customers will receive a direct offer to apply for the loan, followed by a national rollout scheduled for May.

It’s a great way to reduce your power bills and reduce your household’s carbon footprint says experts of Borg Energy India Pvt Ltd.

According to the experts of Borg Energy India Pvt Ltd, the demand for energy is similarly on an all-time high. Hence, the Indian government has taken initiatives and set objectives to meet the rising demand for renewable energies over the next few years.

Looking back, the country no doubt has made some remarkable progress. The pandemic and containment measures implemented to curb the coronavirus has got the economy crippling down. The business closed, people on lockdown, salary cut and job loss. Yet, it has been a year of clean energy.

India generation of power capacity from renewable, wind hydroelectric, and other solar sources have already reached 38 per cent in 2020. Giving India a massive renewable target, this progress is already putting the country on track to reach and exceed the goals without hassle. The landmark project for flexible renewable energy was also awarded as a way of addressing the challenges of irregularities of wind and solar

Hence, Borg Energy India Pvt Ltd, a company offering innovative, efficient, micro plant while harnessing the power of wind and solar explores India’s renewable energy goals. Plus, how India is set to achieving these goals.

Short term goals

India is on its journey of ambitious goals on renewable energy and its working towards making them happen, the experts of Borg Energy India Pvt Ltd says. The government has set a target of 175GW of renewable energy by the year 2022. This includes 100 GW from solar, 60 GW from wind, 10 GW from bio-power and 5 GW from small hydropower. Plus, a Rooftop Solar Projects of 40 GW by 2022.

When this plan was first announced by the Prime Minister Modi in 2015, it was met with skepticism. After all, this is a nation that is mostly dependent on coal and has only generated 34GW. As of September 2020, the renewable power capacity was already at approximately 90GW, 48GW are at various stages of installation and almost 26GW are at the planning stages.

At the World Solar Technology virtual Summit, PM Modi confidently states that India will reach the 175GW budget of its 2022 renewable energy target and even surpass it to reach 220GW by 2022.

If you live in an apartment, your household energy consumption is probably a lot lower than that of someone who lives in a house. But still, we don’t blame any apartment dwellers who occasionally feel jealous of people whose houses are outfitted with shiny solar panels, sending a message to all the neighbors that they live in the most eco-friendly house on the block.

Yes, you can install solar panels in your apartment

There are several companies that sell solar panels for apartments; however, powering your entire apartment on solar energy may be a lofty task.

Keep reading for a few awesome, apartment-friendly solar panel solutions, as well as a few other ideas for getting your apartment building or office building to run on renewable energy.

According to the experts of Borg Energy India Pvt Ltd, one important thing to consider during the installation of Solar panels, is the type of solar panels. They play a key role in determining the cost, aesthetics, installation and maintenance cost and the specific needs.

While there are many types of solar panels, the three major ones are monocrystalline, polycrystalline, and thin-film. Each has its advantages and disadvantages, together with the different purposes they serve. Hence, it is important to choose the right one that matches your needs.

Here, a reputable renewable company, offering a micro power plant and harnessing Solar and Wind Power for clean energy,  Borg Energy India Pvt Ltd explain the 3 types of solar panels. This will help you in making the right buying decision.

Monocrystalline

Ever seen a dark colored, round edges cells, they are probably Monocrystalline says experts of Borg Energy India Pvt Ltd. However, while the cells are typically dark, there is a wide range of colours for the black sheets and frames.

This type is the oldest, purest and widely used solar panels. They are referred to as “monocrystalline” to demonstrate that the silicon used is single-crystal silicon. The cells are produced using a cylindrical silicon ingot developed from a single crystal of silicon of high purity. Because the cells are made from single-crystal silicon, the electrons have a lot of room to flow.

Monocrystalline boast of the highest level of efficiency at 15-20%. They also require less space and many claims that this type of solar cell lasts the longest. Plus, many manufacturers give them a 25-year warranty. Unsurprisingly, it is the most expensive among them all.
