That depends on the power consumption of the home and the size of the panels. A typical home can be powered with about 7 to 10 Kw's of panels. Energy conservation techniques would need to be enforced to stay with those parameters. I have 2 Kw's of panels on my home and power over 20% of my home on the panels. Your results will vary by location and energy requirements.

Is solar power the greenest kind of power?

No, there is a lot of "stuff" that is not green needed to make the panels etc. Hydroelectric power is perhaps the greenest.


What materials are needed for making solar panels?

This is an excellent website that will teach you everything you need to know about building solar panels: http://www.mdpub.com/SolarPanel/. Solar Panels are made up of solar cells, that convert sun energy into usable electricity. Normally the cells charge a bank of batteries that will power an inverter, which converts the DC into AC. You can now plug in devices and appliances you wish to power from your solar panels.

Why are fossil fuels used in the production of solar panels?

Fossil fuels are used in the production of solar panels because they are needed to power the manufacturing processes that create the panels. This includes activities like mining raw materials, transportation, and running factories.
