Here’s how solar energy works and how it can transform the way your home or business uses power.
Solar panels are made up of photovoltaic (PV) cells that convert sunlight into direct current (DC) electricity. These panels are installed on your roof or another sun-exposed area to capture as much sunlight as possible. Even during cloudy days, the panels can still generate electricity, although at a reduced rate.
The electricity generated by your solar panels is in the form of direct current (DC). Since most homes and businesses run on alternating current (AC), the solar system includes an inverter that converts the DC electricity into usable AC electricity for your property. This allows your home or business to run on solar energy, powering your lights, appliances, and devices.
Once the electricity is converted to AC, it is used to power your home or business directly. Any electricity that’s not immediately used can either be stored in a battery (if you have a battery storage system) or fed back into the grid.
If your system produces more electricity than you use, the excess energy is sent back to the grid. Many areas have a feed-in tariff, which means you’ll be credited for the extra power your system generates and exports to the grid. This helps further reduce your energy bills.
Most modern solar systems come with an online monitoring platform that allows you to track your system’s energy production in real-time. You can monitor performance, efficiency, and savings from your computer or smartphone, ensuring your system is always running at peak performance.
With solar energy, you can generate your own electricity, reducing your reliance on the grid and lowering your energy bills. In many cases, homeowners and businesses can save thousands of dollars over the lifespan of their solar system.
Solar energy is a clean, renewable power source that doesn’t produce harmful emissions. By switching to solar, you’re helping reduce your carbon footprint and contributing to a healthier planet.
Solar energy allows you to become more self-sufficient, reducing your reliance on traditional energy providers. With the right solar setup, you can even go off-grid entirely, giving you complete control over your energy usage and costs.
A solar system typically lasts 25-30 years, making it a long-term investment. While there is an upfront cost, the savings you’ll accumulate over the years more than justify the expense, especially with the availability of government incentives and financing options.
