  01  ENERGY PRODUCTION

Transforming Sunlight into Energy

Solar panels on your roof capture sunlight and convert it into clean electricity for your home.

  02  FLOW
OPTIMIZATION

powering Your Home

The electricity generated flows into your home, providing power for all your appliances and devices.

  03  POWER MANAGEMENT

Generating Energy Credits

Excess electricity generated during the day is sent back to the grid, spinning your utility meter backward and building credits.

  04  UTILITY INTEGRATION

Using Stored Energy at Night

At night, your home draws on the energy credits accumulated during the day, ensuring a consistent power supply.

Solar panels capture sunlight and use photovoltaic (PV) cells to generate direct current (DC) electricity. Since homes use alternating current (AC), an inverter converts DC into AC. The electricity is then used to power your appliances, and any excess energy can be stored in batteries or sent back to the grid for credits through net metering.

A solar inverter is like a translator. It takes the DC electricity produced by your solar panels and converts it into AC electricity, which your home can use. Without an inverter, the energy from your solar panels wouldn’t be compatible with your appliances.

Solar panels on your roof capture sunlight and turn it into electricity. That electricity travels to an inverter, which converts it into power that your home can use. The energy then flows through your electrical panel to run your lights, appliances, and devices. Any extra energy is either stored in a battery or sent back to the grid through net metering to earn credits.
