Energy Independence For Everyone

Solar panels capture sunlight and convert it to electricity (DC). An inverter changes it to usable electricity (AC) for your home. Excess power can go to the grid (credits), and you can draw power from the grid at night or on cloudy days.

A typical home solar system will have these main components:

• Solar panels: These capture the sun's energy.
• Inverter: Converts DC electricity from the panels to usable AC electricity for your home.
• Electrical panel: Distributes the converted electricity throughout your house.
• Grid connection (optional): Allows excess power to be sent to the grid and your home to draw power when needed.

Additionally, there may be monitoring systems to track energy production and efficiency.

Absolutely! Expanding your solar system is often possible, but it depends on your setup. A qualified installer can assess your current system's capacity, roof space, and compatibility with additional panels. They'll also ensure any changes meet local regulations. Contact a pro to see if adding panels is the right choice for you!

Absolutely! Solar panels will work in the winter, although they might generate less electricity compared to the summer. Here's why:

• Sunlight: While daylight hours are shorter in winter, sunlight is still present. Solar panels can capture this light and convert it to energy.
• Temperature: Cold weather actually slightly improves the efficiency of solar panels.

However, there are two things to consider:

• Snow: Heavy snowfall can block sunlight and reduce energy production. In most cases, the angle of the panels will shed some snow, and light snowfalls may melt quickly.
• Production: Due to shorter days, your overall energy generation will naturally be lower in the winter.

Overall, solar panels are a valuable investment year-round, even in the winter.
