How It Works

Each solar panel in solar panel installations is made up of small photovoltaic (PV) cells that absorb photons emitted from the sun. This process generates free electricity through the photovoltaic effect, which can be used in your home.

Additionally, the electricity generated can be stored in a battery and released when needed, maximising the benefits of your solar panel installations.

In principle, power generation can be divided into two steps

Energy production

When light falls on the photovoltaic (PV) modules, electrons are released in the solar cells. The positive or negative charge carriers collect at the electrical contacts, which creates a DC voltage between the front and back of the cell.

This photoelectric effect does not require any mechanical or chemical reactions and is therefore wear-free and maintenance-free.

Power conversion

The direct current generated by the solar panels is then converted from DC into grid-compliant AC alternating current by an inverter. Tested to safety standards and sophisticated processor technology as well as the latest generation of power electronics ensure effective conversion of the solar power. The alternating current generated can then be used in your own home or stored in a battery storage unit for use when you most need it.

“I have known of UKSS for many years as it is a prominent business in the local area, but I have never had the opportunity to use them up until recently. From first talking to Steve about the type of installation that we wanted, to going through software apps and receiving aftercare advice from Gemma, I found the whole process of choosing solar panels and having them fitted extremely easy, which was due to the friendliness of the team, the explanation of terms without using jargon that people don’t understand and a smooth, problem-free install.”

“We would just like to thank the team at UKSS Ltd who made the installation of our solar panels quick and easy and with little disruption. Everything was explained to us throughout the process we would highly recommend them. Thanks again.”

“We had a security roller garage door installed by UKSS in 2022… the fitters were very efficient. Later, when looking at solar panels, most companies seemed to be simply selling a product, but UKSS offered a full service… We had 12 panels and a 5kW battery installed in 2023, and the system has proved very worthwhile, with our electricity costs dropping significantly… When we had a battery issue after 18 months, UKSS quickly arranged a replacement under guarantee. They are a local firm that know their customers, do a professional job, and are on hand to sort any issues… We would have no hesitation in using them again.”
