Solar Photovoltaics  NICEIC    

Every day, the earth receives solar energy equivalent to the electricity consumption of 5.9 billion people for 27 years !

Photovoltaic (P V) technology enables us to turn this energy into electricity.

This transformation takes place without noise or gas emissions and is totally clean.

With no movement of mechanical parts there is an unparalleled level of reliability with a module’s estimated lifetime of longer than 30 years.

As a source of clean, renewable energy, photovoltaic energy matches the current environmental policies of the governments of the industrialised nations which have been formalised by several agreements/documents recently aiming to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Worldwide P V production is therefore increasing rapidly with industry research and development ongoing to improve on current technologies and to bring in new alternatives. This has led to a fall in the cost per Watt and the arrival of new, more efficient products.
