As of September 30, 2021, JinkoSolar has delivered more than 80GW solar panels globally,which makes JinkoSolar the world's largest photovoltaic module manufacturer in terms of cumulative shipments. Xinjiang (China) Leshan (China) Spain Qinghai (China) U.S.A.
the solar panel to ensure it does not overcharge the battery. The charge controller must also ensure that the connected loads don’t over-discharge the battery, thereby damaging it. THE SOLAR BATTERY stores the electricity from the solar module via the charge controller. This electricity can then be used at night or in periods of bad weather.
Commonly, most items that make up Balance of Systems products include: DC/AC Disconnects, Junction Boxes, Combiner Boxes, Circuit Breakers, Fuses, Load Centers, Rapid Shutdowns, Surge Devices, among other components that may vary from system to system. These components will differ per individual solar energy system, as some systems will need ...

The Renewable Energy Ready Home (RERH) specifications were developed by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to assist builders in designing and constructing homes equipped with a set of features that make the installation of solar energy systems after the completion of the home’s construction easier and less expensive. The specifications...
These specifications were created with certain assumptions about the house and the proposed solar energy system. They are designed for builders constructing single family homes with pitched roofs, which offer adequate access to the attic after construction. It is assumed that aluminum framed photovoltaic (PV) panels mounted on a “post” and rail mou...
EPA has developed the following RERH specification as an educational resource for interested builders. EPA does not conduct third-party verification of the site data or the online site assessment results, or verify whether the home has been properly outfitted with a set of features that comply with this specification. The RERH specifications are no...
Builders should use EPA’s online RERH SSAT to demonstrate that each proposed system site location meets a minimum solar resource potential. EPA has developed an online site assessment tool, which assists builders in assessing whether a new home offers an appropriate installation environment for the future installation of a solar energy system. The ...
The builder should install a 1” metal conduit from the designated inverter location to the main service panel where the system is intended to be tied into the home’s electrical service. The conduit should be capped and clearly labeled as an RERH component on the stubbed end near the inverter location. The conduit run should be identified on electri...
The builder should identify the local electric utility company and its Web address on the checklist. Renewable energy metering requirements, and possibly financial incentives, vary from utility to utility. Homeowners should be encouraged to contact and consult their utility service provider as a first step when they begin to plan for the installati...
The builder should avoid implementing landscaping that has the potential to shade the proposed array location at the time of home construction or in future years. As a rule of thumb, vegetation with a mature species height should adhere to a distance-to-height ratio of 2.6 to the nearest point of the proposed array location. Builders and/or landsca...
Careful placement of roof penetrations will maximize the available roof space for and facilitate the eventual installation of the proposed array. If the proposed array is to be located on a roof, care must be taken to ensure that the proposed array location is not affected by typical plumbing or mechanical roof penetrations. The placement of such p...
EPA does not provide labels for labeling the RERH components described in the specification. However, guidance is provided below for the builder about the suggested application and size of labels for each applicable item in the specification.

IEE Guidance Note 7 to BS 7671 - Special Locations, Section 12 Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Power Supply Systems (ISBN 0 85296 995 3, 2003) 1.3 Safety From the outset, the designer and installer of a PV system must consider the potential hazards carefully, and systematically devise methods to minimise the risks.
The solar panels on your roof convert sunlight into electricity which can be used in your home for free, saving you money. This booklet explains more about how your solar PV (photovoltaic) system works, when it generates electricity and how to maximise your use of this free electricity.
