Solar panels don't actually hold any charge. They simply convert sunlight into direct current - which is fed immediately into the household's electricity supply. If the house it using less power than is converted - the surplus is fed back into the mains electrical grid - and the household is credited for the extra power generated.

How long does it take to charge batteries with a solar panel?

No set answer to that. It depends on the capacity of the battery, the size and efficiency of the solar panel and the intensity of the sunlight.


Can batteries be recharged by sun exposure?

No, unless you have custom-made rechargeable batteries. It might be possible to build a battery with a built-in solar panel, but it probably wouldn't fit on a "regular" AA battery. It would take a car, or other similarly sized, battery to fit a solar panel. It might also be possible to make a device with that uses solar panels to recharge smaller batteries. But leaving a regular battery in the sun will not recharge it.

How long does it take to generate 375 watts of energy with a 1 square meter solar panel?

The amount of time it takes to generate 375 watts of energy with a 1 square meter solar panel depends on the efficiency of the panel and the amount of sunlight it receives. On average, a good quality solar panel can produce about 100-200 watts per square meter, so generating 375 watts may take a few hours under optimal conditions.


How long would it take a 200 watt solar panel to charge a 12V deep cycle battery?

A very long time. I would guess 48 hours of sunlight at the very least. Even that may not be enough to fully charge the battery. It really depends on how much amperage the solar panel is putting out.
