Solar panels capture sunlight
The conversion to solar power begins the moment sunlight reaches the panels. The sunlight creates a reaction in between the 2 layers of the panel creating static electricity which is then transferred into the inverter.
-
Inverter converts the power
It changes direct current (DC) electricity that's produced by the solar panels into alternating current (AC) electricity, which is used to run your home.
-
Power not used goes back into grid
If you are not using more power than your solar panels are producing, the excess power created is then sold back to the utility company.
-
Your monthly utility bill decreases
Your system generates power usually during peak power usage (after 3pm), which means you will be receiving clean, renewable energy for a fraction of the price.
-
Rest easy at night
By choosing solar energy to power your home you are not only helping the environment, you are making one of the smartest investments when it comes to your home.
