Understanding Solar Energy
Solar energy is electricity produced from sunlight using solar panels. These panels absorb sunlight through photovoltaic cells and convert it into direct current electricity. This electricity is then converted into usable alternating current through a solar inverter.
Solar energy reduces dependence on grid electricity and provides a clean, renewable power source. Once installed, a solar system continues to generate electricity for decades with minimal maintenance.
How a Solar System Powers Your Home
A complete solar system includes panels, an inverter, wiring, and safety components. During daylight, the system powers appliances directly and may also store excess energy in batteries or export it to the grid.
At night or during low sunlight, power is supplied through stored energy or grid connection, depending on the system type.
