When you want to retrieve data from a database, you ask for the data by using Structured Query Language, or SQL. SQL is a computer language that closely resembles English, but that database programs understand. Every query that you run uses SQL behind the scenes.
The inverter turns the DC electricity generated by the solar panels into 120-volt AC that can be put to immediate use by connecting the inverter directly to a dedicated circuit breaker in the electrical panel.
Average system costs = $95 per square foot. Average solar panel output = 10.6 watts per square foot. Average solar energy system costs = $8.95 per watt. In order to compare the solar energy costs to conventional hydrocarbon fuels, we must covert the $8.95 per into KWH. Letâs make two calculations to measure the total electric energy output over the lifespan of the solar energy system.
