Generating Clean, Renewable Energy

Rooftop solar panels generate clean, renewable energy from the sun, and they are a great way to generate electricity for your home or business. At Delta Roofing, our Los Angeles roofing company has become extremely familiar with the advancements in solar energy technology, and how solar technology is an inexhaustible energy resource that is both pollution and noise free.

If you are considering having solar panels installed, it is in your best interest to have a roofer take a look at your commercial building or your home first. You will want an expert to examine your roof and help you to determine where the solar panels would be best situated. Additionally, you want to make sure that no unnecessary damage is done to your roof during the solar installation process.

How Solar Energy Works

Solar panels are also called solar cells or photovoltaic cells, these are found on rooftop solar panels, spacecraft, and calculators. Their cells are made of a material that is a semiconductor. When the cells interact with sunlight, the light loosens electrons from the atoms, and the electrons travel freely through and around the cell, generating electricity.

When a number of solar panels (solar modules) are installed together, it is commonly referred to as a solar array or photovoltaic array. Because arrays can be manufactured in varying sizes, they are a great way to increase the energy output of the solar electricity system.
