Frequently Asked Questions
How does solar energy work in Barbados?
Solar panels capture sunlight and convert it into electricity using photovoltaic (PV) cells. The electricity powers your home or business in real time. Any excess energy can be stored in battery systems or exported to the grid, depending on your setup. Barbados receives strong sunlight year-round, making solar energy highly efficient and cost-effective.
How much can I save by installing solar panels?
Most Pan Solar customers save at least 25% on their electricity bills. Savings depend on: Current energy consumption System size Roof orientation and shading Battery storage integration We provide a detailed savings estimate during your free consultation.
What is a Solar Power Purchase Agreement (PPA)?
A PPA allows you to use solar energy with no upfront investment. Pan Solar installs and maintains the system, and you purchase the electricity it produces at a fixed, discounted rate. Typical terms: 10 years for residential customers 20–25 years for commercial and hospitality clients
Do I need to stay connected to Barbados Light & Power?
Remaining connected to the grid is optional. Many customers stay connected for additional backup during extreme weather conditions. Others combine solar with battery storage or backup generators for greater independence. We help you determine the best setup based on your needs.
What happens during a power outage?
If your system includes battery storage, you will continue to have electricity during outages. Without battery storage, grid-tied systems automatically shut down for safety reasons. Battery storage provides uninterrupted power for essential loads.
How long do solar panels last?
Most solar panels have a lifespan of 25 to 30 years. Inverters typically last 10–15 years and may require replacement during the system’s lifetime. Pan Solar installs high-quality equipment designed for long-term performance in Caribbean climates.
Is my roof suitable for solar panels?
Most properties in Barbados are suitable for solar. During the assessment, we evaluate: Roof structure and material Sun exposure Shading Available installation space If roof installation is not ideal, we can discuss alternative mounting options.
What maintenance is required for solar systems?
Solar systems require minimal maintenance. We provide: Performance monitoring Preventive inspections Cleaning recommendations System diagnostics Our Operations & Maintenance services ensure optimal performance throughout the system’s lifespan.
What is battery storage and do I need it?
Battery storage stores excess solar energy generated during the day for use at night or during outages. It is recommended if you: Want backup power Experience frequent outages Want greater energy independence Use significant energy in the evening
