Solar panels for yaht

Enjoy a pleasant trip with solar panels for yachts

As sustainability and renewable energy sources become more important in today's world, solar panels have established themselves as a popular solution for powering yachts. They are a cost-effective and environmentally friendly way to generate electricity, reduce dependence on liquid fuels and enjoy enjoyable boating. Here we will present the benefits of using solar panels for vessels.

Why solar panels for yachts?

Also called photovoltaic, they offer numerous advantages to boat owners:

Clean and renewable energy:

They use the sun's rays to generate electricity, making them a clean and renewable source of energy. Unlike liquid fossil fuels, solar energy produces no harmful emissions and does not contribute to air pollution, making it an environmentally friendly choice.

Cost effective:

Although the initial investment may be higher, long-term energy costs can be significantly lower compared to traditional fuel-fired generators. Photovoltaic panels have no ongoing fuel costs and require minimal maintenance, resulting in savings over time.

Quiet and reliable:

Photovoltaics operate silently, meaning there are no noisy generators to disturb your peaceful boating experience. They are also very reliable, with no moving parts that can wear out, making them a reliable source of power.

Energy independence:

They allow yacht owners to be more independent and less dependent on external power sources. This is particularly useful when sailing in remote areas or during long voyages where access to shore power may be limited.

How do they work?

They convert sunlight into electricity through a process called the photovoltaic (PV) effect. They consist of many interconnected silicon cells.
They are usually installed on the deck or other suitable areas of the yacht where they can receive maximum sunlight. The electricity generated is stored in batteries, which can then power various on-board systems, appliances and electronics, lighting, navigation equipment, cooling, and more.

Selection and installation considerations

When choosing, it is important to consider several important factors:

      Power Need: Determine your yacht's electrical power needs to calculate the right solar system. Consider the energy requirements of all the systems and appliances you plan to power, including lighting, electronics, appliances, and other electrical loads.

      Solar panel type and efficiency: We offer framed and frameless panels. Those with an aluminum frame are usually mounted using spoilers. Strapless ones are glued with special adhesives to the case.

      Panel quality

Power outages on the high seas can be life-threatening. That's why the quality of the components is crucial. For photovoltaic panels intended for vessels, there are special requirements - to withstand vibrations, twists, flooding with salt water. Standard photovoltaics cannot respond to these conditions and quickly fail. We only offer solar panels for boats from reputable companies that specialize in this field. They can work in 12v, 24v, 48v and 220V - 230V systems, according to consumers.

Photovoltaics with a special surface that can be stepped on

Made with cutting-edge technology, they withstand high loads and are not damaged when walked on. Their surface does not retain water and increases traction. They provide an opportunity for a quick reaction of the crew, which is of particular importance in sailing yachts.

Conclusion

If you want a pleasant yacht trip, then solar panels are a must. They do not pollute the water and air and do not create noise, and at the same time generate the energy you need. Check out our options and prices below and make your choice. Order now.
