About Solar Panels products
Solar panels will add value to your property, now and for any future owners. They work by using semi-conductive material to convert light into electricity, saving you money in a sustainable way. Why not make the most of the hot sun in New Zealand and install home solar panels? Browse the range of state-of-the-art solar panels, electric solar systems, solar inverters and batteries on ArchiPro, sourced from New Zealand’s top suppliers, and make your home or business electricity-efficient and climate-friendly. Residential solar panels are an option for homes, with panel choice depending on roof area and electricity use.
Monocrystalline panels
These are among the most efficient type of solar panel, taking up less space and lasting longer. They are also among the most expensive to install.
Polycrystalline panels
Polycrystalline panels are slightly less efficient than the monocrystalline option, though are more affordable and a good option for those just starting out.
PERC panels
Passivated Emitter and Rear Cell (PERC) panels collect more solar energy using less panel space, making them ideal for limited spaces.
Thin film panel
As these don’t come in a uniform size, they are best for unorthodox roof styles and are very resilient, despite being a thinner panel. A solar panel frame should suit the roof structure and the conditions of the installation site.
Bifacial solar panel
Bifacial solar panels capture sunlight from both the front and back of the panel, which means they can produce more electricity than similar-sized, traditional solar panels.
The advantages of high-quality solar panels
Solar panels can add value to your property, reduce pressure on the grid and save you money. Investing in a quality product will reap these benefits, providing an efficient power source over a longer time period. A high-quality product will also have the technology in place to avoid problems sometimes seen with solar panels, such as hot spots (caused by bird droppings or debris). You should also make sure the install is as good as the product, choosing only experienced and professional installers. When comparing solar panels for house projects, consider the roof orientation, available area and expected electricity use.
How to choose solar panels that are right for you
If you’ve got limited space, PERC panels take up less room so are a strong option to consider. Monocrystalline are a very effective and premium choice. Polycrystalline are a good affordable option, though they’re less efficient in high-temperature environments, emphasising the fact that it's important to choose a panel to suit where you live in New Zealand. Most are roof panels, though there are alternatives which you can discuss with your solar panel specialist. A small solar system for home use may suit a property with lower electricity demand or limited roof area. The range also includes portable solar panels, such as the EcoFlow NextGen 160W Portable Solar Panel.
