Solar tiles !!! An alternative source of energy in modern construction !!!
The country has been facing a long-running energy crisis, and rising electricity prices have made it a source of concern for many. The only way to avoid these problems is to find alternative energy sources. Not only are they relatively inexpensive but they are also environmentally friendly.
One of the alternative energy sources is the acquisition of solar energy, the use of which is often found in rural and urban suburbs. Panels are installed to generate solar energy, but now solar tiles are also being used for this purpose, which are usually installed on roofs.
If you plan to build a house or want to repair or renovate a built house, this is a rare opportunity to install a solar system on the roof. It turns out that solar power requires only one investment and then the energy problem is solved for a long time.
In most parts of our country, the sun is available for about 300 days of the year, which is a treasure trove of solar energy and it will never run out. We need to make the most of this gift of nature and manage alternative energy.
What is solar energy?
The energy from the sun is called 'solar energy'. Only a quarter of the sun's rays reach the earth, while three-quarters remain in the atmosphere. The sun reflects its energy from the X-rays to the wavelength of the radio waves. This energy is visible in 40% of the spectrum and 50% of the solar energy appears in the form of Infrared and the rest in the form of Ultra Violet. It is a gift of nature that the world gets so much sunshine every day that it can generate electricity for many weeks. It is estimated that 36 times more energy can be obtained from sunlight than from other sources. The heat of the sun can also be used to make steam from water to run generators and generate electricity.
Invention of solar tile.
Solar tiles are also a power generation system like solar panels. Installation on their roads and passages can generate electricity. Scientists at the University of Glasgow in the United Kingdom have succeeded in inventing tiles that can not only generate electricity but are also waterproof as well as capable of bearing human weight. In addition, the American company Tesla (manufacturer of electric vehicles) introduced such tiles on the roof, which had solar panels. Work is also underway on solar tiles that will not be visible, thus making it easier to supply solar energy to homes. These glass tiles are similar in appearance to ordinary tiles but are a valuable source of solar energy. From the outside, viewers have no idea if these are ordinary tiles or solar tiles. With the help of these tiles in daylight, 200 watts of electricity can be generated per square meter, while during cloudy weather they will reduce power generation by 50 watts. Solar tiles will play a vital role in the future in overcoming global power shortages.
Mechanism
Solar tiles contain photovoltaic cells, which, when exposed to sunlight, generate electricity, which is used as needed in the building. Each tile is connected to the electrical distribution board by cables. Solar tiles work equally well on photovoltaic panels. The main difference between them is the assembly, where photovoltaic panels are attached to a roof, where solar tiles are part of the roof construction from the beginning. Effective use of solar tiles requires the installation of an inverter, which converts the energy of each tile into electricity. Another alternative is to install a solar diverter or 'domestic solar system', which requires the supervision of a professional. The energy stored by it is directly related to the sunlight falling on the solar tiles while the climate is also connected to this place. Solar tiles need to be cleaned to get the best results.
Installation of solar tiles
If you are constructing a building, consider installing photovoltaic tiles. The cost of high quality tiles is significant savings in about 5 years. Solar tiles are commonly used in corporate buildings because of their importance to durability and quality. However, they are also installed in homes to reduce electricity costs.
