WHY INVEST IN SOLAR ENERGY?

  • The first reason to invest in photovoltaic solar energy is that the Sun is free and it is the only resource that is needed to power the solar panels. The sun is a clean and unlimited source of energy. With a photovoltaic installation you contribute to improving the environment, using the sun as your source of energy, and stop polluting with traditional energy sources that involve large carbon emissions.

HOW IS SOLAR ENERGY PRODUCED IN CHILE?

  • How is it obtained? The sun releases energy in two different ways: in the form of light and heat. Solar energy is obtained when solar panels capture the sun's radiation to transform it into electrical energy (photovoltaic) or thermal energy (solar thermal).

It does not produce carbon emissions

  • Unlike the burning of fossil fuels, solar energy does not generate gases, which cause climate change and the greenhouse effect.

Is inexhaustible

  • While fuels like oil and gas exist in limited quantities, the sun's energy is expected to exist for at least 6.5 billion years longer.

Low maintenance required

  • Due to the high technology incorporated in solar systems, the maintenance required is very low.

Increase the capital gain of the property

  • Various studies show that properties with solar systems sell up to 20% faster and with a value 17% higher than houses without such systems.

They are an excellent option in areas where there is no electricity

  • In Chile there are a large number of areas where electricity does not reach. With a photovoltaic solar system you have the option of electrically feeding houses located in any rural area.

WHY SOLAR ENERGY IN CHILE?

  • Chile has been recognized as an exemplar worldwide in terms of the use of NCRE (Non-Conventional Renewable Energies). Thanks to its great diversity of natural energy resources, it has been cataloged as the greatest precursor to the use of clean energy in Latin America and worldwide it has been considered an exemplary country in the use of these, solar energy standing out.

  • Chile has a very high level of solar radiation. European countries such as Germany and Spain have a much more advanced solar culture despite having radiation indices similar to those of southern Chile.

Is silent

  • Unlike the turbines used in wind energy, solar energy does not generate noise.

Aesthetically they are attractive

  • Regarding aesthetics, many find them even attractive and nowadays there are architectural constructions where these, apart from their functionality, fulfill an important task of beauty in the facades of corporate and institutional buildings all over the world.

It is a profitable investment

  • Although the initial cost of installation is high, solar energy pays for itself in a few years. However, due to its overcrowding, prices have dropped considerably in recent years. In addition, its higher cost only goes to the initial investment, unlike fossil fuels that require constant operational costs.
