Harnessing Solar Energy in Autumn

Solar energy is a renewable, clean and economical source of energy that we can take advantage of all year round, even in autumn . Even though the days are shorter and the sun shines less, solar panels continue to capture solar radiation and transform it into electricity or heat. In this article we tell you how you can get the most out of solar energy in autumn and what benefits it has for your home and your pocket.

What do you need to take advantage of solar energy in autumn?

To take advantage of solar energy in autumn, the first thing you need is to have a photovoltaic or thermal installation appropriate to your needs and the characteristics of your home . At Vifrisan, an air conditioning company in Torrevieja, we are experts in renewable energies and we offer you tailored solutions so that you can enjoy solar energy at any time of the year.

Photovoltaic installation : it consists of solar panels that generate electricity from sunlight. This electricity can be consumed directly, stored in batteries or injected into the electrical grid. With a photovoltaic installation you can save up to 70% on your electricity bill and contribute to reducing CO2 emissions .
Thermal installation : it consists of solar collectors that heat a fluid that circulates through a closed circuit. This fluid is used to heat domestic water or to support the heating system. With a thermal installation you can save up to 60% on your gas or diesel consumption and enjoy free hot water for much of the year .

How to optimize solar energy performance in autumn?

To optimize the performance of solar energy in autumn, it is important to take into account some tips that will help you make the most of the available solar radiation :

Orient the panels or collectors towards the south , which is the direction where the sun hits with greatest intensity.
Tilt the panels or collectors between 30 and 45 degrees , which is the optimal angle to capture sunlight in autumn.
Clean the panels or collectors periodically to remove dust, leaves or dirt that may reduce their efficiency.
Check the condition of the installation components, such as cables, inverters, pumps or valves , and perform appropriate maintenance to avoid breakdowns or energy losses.
Adapt your consumption to the hours of sunshine , taking advantage of the central hours of the day to carry out activities that require more energy, such as running the washing machine, dishwasher or oven.

What advantages does solar energy have in autumn?

Solar energy in the fall has many advantages, both for you and the environment. Some of them are:

Economic savings : by generating your own energy, you reduce your dependence on the electrical grid and pay less for the electricity or gas you consume. In addition, you can benefit from the aid and subsidies that exist to promote the use of renewable energies.
Thermal comfort : by having a heating and hot water system supported by solar energy, you enjoy a pleasant and constant temperature in your home, without having to spend more than necessary.
Environmental sustainability : by using solar energy, you contribute to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and preserving natural resources. Solar energy is clean, inexhaustible and respectful of the environment.
