Step 1
The sun shines down on the earth, as it normally does.
Sunlight hits the solar panels and creates DC (or direct current) electricity.
Step 2
The solar panels absorb that energy and makes it useable.
Solar energy inverters convert DC power into useable AC (alternating current) electricity.
Step 3
Your business starts generating cheaper & more sustainable energy.
The electrical panel distributes clean, affordable power throughout your business which reduces harmful emissions.
Step 4
You receive utility credits for excess power.
Any excess power produced is sent back to the electrical grid to build credits on your company’s utility account in a process called net metering.
Step 5
Always have power, even when your business isn’t producing solar energy.
Your utility company will power your business with the stored credits at night or in inclement weather ─ so there is never a gap in energy usage.
