How Solar Power Works
It's surprisingly simple. We harness the power of the sun and turn it into clean, affordable electricity for your home or business. Here's the magic behind it.
The Journey of Sunlight
Sunlight hits your panels, gets converted to electricity, and powers your life. It's that clean, it's that simple.
The 4 Simple Steps to Solar Power
From sunrise to sunset, your system works silently to generate power for you.
Panels Capture Sunlight
Solar panels, made of photovoltaic (PV) cells, absorb sunlight during the day. This sunlight energizes the cells, creating direct current (DC) electricity.
Inverter Converts Energy
The DC electricity flows to an inverter, which converts it into alternating current (AC) electricity—the type of power used by your home and the grid.
Power Your Home
The clean, AC electricity flows from the inverter to your breaker box, powering your lights, appliances, and electronics just like electricity from the grid.
Use or Store Excess
If your system produces more energy than you use, the excess is sent back to the grid (earning you credits) or stored in a battery for use at night or during outages.
Why It's So Smart
Solar isn't just good for the planet—it's a brilliant financial and practical decision.
Drastically Reduce Bills
Generate your own power and significantly lower your monthly electricity bills.
Lock in Energy Costs
Protect yourself from rising utility prices with predictable, stable energy costs.
Increase Property Value
Homes with solar systems sell for more and are more attractive to buyers.
Help the Planet
Reduce your carbon footprint and contribute to a sustainable future for everyone.
