For example, how many large solar panels would you need to operate a greenhouse with lighting for simulate sun during cloudy weather, a scheduled sprinkle system and other such things?I'm looking for a very in depth answer.
We think that powerful solar panels are good . As per their capacity they of-course needed many many solar panels, tks.
if you are talking electrical solar panels, they are rated in watts they generate in full sun. usually these panels are used in tandem with batteries, so they charge up during the day and the batteries hold a reserve of power for later use. If you figure 8 hours of useful sunlight per day, then a 40 watt panel will light a 40 watt bulb for 8 hours. you can also measure capacity in watt-hours. this would be 40x8 = 320 watt-hours. the general method is to determine how much electricity demand you have over a 24 hour period to get the total watt-hours. then divide that by the watt-hour capacity of one panel to get the number of panels needed.
very hot it can attract the sun
