Photovoltaics (PV) is the field of technology and research related to the application of solar cells for energy by converting sun energy (sunlight, including sun ultra violet radiation) directly into DC electricity that is then passed through inverters that changes the current to AC, the current we use in our national grid and homes. Due to the growing demand for clean sources of energy, the manufacture of solar cells and Photovoltaic arrays has expanded dramatically in recent years. Photovoltaic production has been doubling every 2 years, increasing by an average of 48 percent each year since 2002, making it one of the world’s fastest-growing energy technologies.

Our installers are trained in PV installation. DC current acts in a different way to AC current and is considered more dangerous by the industry. This technology is a specialist part of today’s construction industry and many of our clients realise that ownership of delivering a system like this needs to be taken by an expert in this field. Eco Link Resources Ltd uses software to design the system array and inverter requirement, ensuring the system works at optimum performance.
