Can I get solar energy on a manufacturing home?

Question

And what is the different between solar eletricial and solar panel? Which is cheaper? Which is better? Which is better for manufacturing home?

Answer 1

You can do different things with solar, electricity, hot water, heat.  All of the above is better.  Why not do all of them, one at a time.  The cheapest thing to do is conserve first.  CFL's, tankless hot water, real good refrigerator.  Start with solar hot air, you can do this yourself cheap, here's a good link.

Answer 2

Solar electrical aka photovoltaic, have to be made in factories because of the process of growing semiconductors. they tend to be expensive and low efficiency.  but easy to fit/wire up if required

Solar pannel aka water heater can be made at home from an old radiator pannel painted black & covered by an old window. This required some plumbing to fit into your hot water system, but is simple to do at home.

Answer 3

solar panel means electricity from the sun, when you said solar it means Sun.
