Since ancient times people have been using solar power for their needs. Today, with the growing popularity of alternative green energy sources, solar photovoltaic technology is becoming the most popular source of alternative energy because it is silent, reliable, emission free and cost effective. More and more people all over the world are looking to buy solar panels to reduce energy costs and lessen their carbon footprint. Now, the Ontario Power Authority has a generous “Feed-in Tariff” program, called the microFIT program, to encourage people in Ontario to start making better choices for the environment. The microFIT program will help Ontario lessen our dependence on fossil fuels by phasing out the use of coal power. MicroFIT also allows eligible applicants to make a substantial return on investment by selling the solar energy they produce back to the grid. To participate in the microFIT program you must install Ontario solar panels, Ontario made inverters, and Ontario made racking which comply with the domestic content requirements, and hire Ontario solar installers.

What is Photovoltaic (PV)?

Photovoltaic is the process of converting solar radiation into direct current (DC) electricity using semiconductors. This process gave the birth to solar panels. Solar panels have many cells that contain a photovoltaic material. The materials presently used are monocrystalline silicon, polycrystalline silicon, amorphous silicon, cadmium telluride and copper indium selenide/sulfide.

Solar panels are a very sound investment. When you buy solar panels for the Ontario microFIT program, you can make a considerable return on your investment (up to 15% ROI/annum). You can also lessen or completely offset your electricity bills and reduce your carbon footprint at the same time!

Solar panels are very durable, if installed correctly. If you are thinking of installing solar panels for your home or business, you can be at ease knowing most solar panels are warranted for 25 years and are virtually maintenance free!
