Solar panels require minimal maintenance, typically limited to occasional cleaning to remove dirt and debris. Regular inspections may also be recommended to ensure optimal performance.

While solar panels are most efficient in direct sunlight, they can still generate electricity on cloudy days. However, their output may be reduced compared to sunny conditions.

Solar panels do not generate electricity at night since they rely on sunlight to produce power. However, energy storage solutions such as batteries can store excess energy generated during the day for use at night.

Yes, there are various incentives available for installing solar panels, including tax credits, rebates, and net metering programs. These incentives can help offset the initial cost of installation and make solar energy more affordable.
