How Solar Works
A solar system is a device that converts energy from the sun into electricity that can be used to power homes and businesses. It is made up of several components, including solar panels, an inverter and a battery (optional).
Solar panels are made up of photovoltaic (PV) cells that convert sunlight into direct current (DC) electricity. The inverter then converts the DC electricity into alternating current (AC) electricity, which is the type of electricity used in homes and businesses.
If the solar system is connected to the grid, any excess electricity generated by the panels can be sold back to the grid. If the solar system is not connected to the grid, the excess electricity can be stored in a battery for later use.
Overall, solar systems are a renewable and sustainable source of energy that can help reduce reliance on fossil fuels and lower electricity bills.
