It's really hard
There is so much to learn and know about off Grid systems. I'm starting to get a hold of it myself. So I wanted to pass on my knowledge in an easy and productive way so "anyone" will get to know the knowledge. I will start about the solar panels, hopefully it will help you....
Types of Solar Panels
Alright, let's shine a light on solar panels! Picture this: they're like the superheroes of energy, soaking up sunlight and turning it into electricity. It's like having your own mini power plant on your roof or anywhere that you can put them!
These clever contraptions are made up of solar cells that work their magic when the sun's rays hit them. They're like little sun magnets, attracting all that solar energy and converting it into power for your home. It's like having your own personal sunshine generator!
And get this – solar panels are eco-friendly too. No more burning fossil fuels or polluting the planet. With solar power, you're harnessing the clean, green energy of the sun, and that's something to smile about.
Sure, solar panels have their serious side too. They need a bit of space and sunshine to do their thing, and they're not exactly cheap. But hey, when you think about all the money you'll save on energy bills and the planet-saving benefits, it's totally worth it.
So, if you're looking to add a little sunshine to your life (and your energy bill), why not give solar panels a shot? They're like your own personal ray of sunshine, bringing light and energy to your home in the most eco-friendly way possible. Shine on, solar panels, shine on! 🌞
There are three main types of solar panels: monocrystalline (highest efficiency, most expensive), polycrystalline (middle of the road), and thin film (lowest efficiency, cheapest cost). The efficiency explains how well a panel converts sunlight into energy.

Wattage describes how much electrical output the panel can generate in optimal conditions. Panel wattages include 100W, 250W, 400W, and sometimes more. You will obviously generate less energy on cloudy days, meaning you will need higher wattage and more solar panels in a climate like the Northern parts of Sweden where the winter can be very foggy and snowy/ rainy.
