The use of solar system or solar panels in Nigeria is the only way out of the country’s constant electricity crisis. Solar system simply converts energy received from the sun into electrical energy. It is most recommended in Nigeria because the country is situated somewhere around the solar belt and experiences up to nine hours sunshine a day on an average level.

While solar panels are still quite expensive to buy and install, they seem more economical because they are not expensive to manage and use, since their source of energy is natural (sun), unlike generators that may require constant refill of fuel/diesel to function.

Solar Panel for Homes in Nigeria

The invention of solar energy is a remarkable advantage of technology. Over time, three different types of solar panels are most readily available because they have become more commonly used. These three are; monocrystalline, polycrystalline and thin film solar panels.

However the type most preferred for homes usage are the monocrystalline solar panels. They work effectively in small spaces even when the sun’s radiation is lower. They also have longer durability when compared to other types of solar panel.

Monocrystalline solar panels implies that they are single-crystal silicons. This gives more room for movement of the electrons responsible for generating the required electrical energy. This also explains why monocrystalline panels are highly effective when compared to the others.
