How Solar Works?

Solar is a renewable energy resource that uses photovoltaic (PV) systems to create electricity. Want to know how solar works?

A solar PV system uses light to generate electricity, which you can then use to power your home or office, reducing your bills and your impact on the environment.

• The sun’s light (photons) is absorbed by the solar panel.
• The silicon and conductors in the panel convert the light into Direct Current (DC) electricity, which then flows into the inverter.
• The inverter converts the DC into Alternate Current (AC) electricity, which you can use in your home.
• Any additional electricity that’s not used by your home is fed back into the grid.
• Electricity is drawn from the grid when you need more power than your solar energy system can produce.
