Clean Energy & Solar FAQs
What is clean energy?
The production of clean energy does not result in the emission of greenhouse gases or other pollutants. Renewable energy sources like wind and sun can be used to produce it.
Why is clean energy important?
When producing energy, clean energy sources don't release greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. Best of all, clean energy cannot run out.
What are the benefits of Clean Energy?
Our reliance on fossil fuels is decreasing thanks to clean energy. By reducing emissions, renewable energy adoption can mitigate climate change. About one-third of the emissions in Canada are caused by coal and other fossil fuels. A switch to renewable energy sources could reduce this amount significantly.
Are the terms “renewable energy” and “clean energy” interchangeable?
No, not all forms of renewable energy are clean. For instance, geothermal energy is renewable, but its processing may be harmful to the environment. In contrast, solar energy is seen as clean and renewable due to its minimal environmental impact when put on rooftops.
What is solar energy?
Using photovoltaic panels, solar technology transforms sunlight energy into electricity for your home. It is a clean, renewable energy source.
What are the benefits of solar energy as an energy source?
Carbon dioxide and other air pollutants are not produced when using solar energy. It lessens the need for fossil fuels.
- It can be renewed. The energy we need to power the world comes from the sun, and it will never run out.
- It is clean and free of carbon dioxide. When you generate power with solar panels, no greenhouse gas emissions are produced.
- It is inexpensive to operate. No fuel is used in the process by which solar panels transform sunlight into energy. Extra electricity can be stored in batteries or supplied back into the power system.
How do solar panels work?
The light and heat from the sun are captured by solar cells, also known as photovoltaic or PV panels, and transformed into sustainable energy for your home.
Photons of energy are turned into DC (direct current) electricity when sunlight reaches your solar panel, and then into AC (alternating current) electricity for usage in your home. You may gather and use the precise quantity of electricity for your needs by combining solar panels into a solar grid or solar array.
Are solar panels really worth it?
Yes! If you're looking to make a positive environmental impact, save resources and save money - solar energy is a great way to do all three!
Over the course of the life of their solar energy systems, Brightworks clients can save thousands of dollars. Some receive credit for the power they create through net metering programs and others recover expenses through various rebates and incentives. Meanwhile, the price of grid electricity is only going up.
In terms of the environment, a solar energy investment enables you to significantly reduce your carbon footprint and dependency on fossil fuels. Additionally, it's a fantastic opportunity to raise awareness of clean technologies in your neighborhood and help drive the green energy transition.
What is the solar market today in Canada?
In Canada, there are currently more than 43,000 solar (PV) energy installations on residential, commercial and industrial rooftops, providing power directly to those homes and businesses. With strides in the industry, solar energy in Canada has reached an installed capacity of nearly 4 GW.
What are the limitations of solar energy?
Location, time of day, season, and weather all have an impact on how much sunlight reaches the earth's surface. For a reasonable amount of energy to be captured, a sizable surface area is required. In order to assess if solar is the best investment for each client, we specialize in creating individualized plans.
