Everything You Need To Know About Solar
Solar panels are more than just energy plates on your house, they’re better for the environment and easy on your wallet.
What is solar power?
Solar power is energy that is created by light from the sun’s rays. As our sun is a potent source of energy, we can harvest this energy through solar panels and then convert the sun's energy into electricity or use this energy to heat air, water and other substances.
Solar power has become a widely discussed topic with an ever increasing demand. Not only does solar power reduce your energy bills and add value to your property, it is also highly beneficial to the environment.
How is solar power produced?
Solar panels capture the sun's rays and then convert the sun's energy into a DC current. The DC current then flows to an inverter which turns the DC current to AC, which can then be used to power electrical appliances in your household.
Excess power that is generated and not used is then exported to the grid and sold to your energy retailer.
