How Solar Systems Work

What Is Solar?

When the sun is shining, solar panels convert sunlight into DC (direct current) electricity. The solar inverter converts this electricity into AC (alternating current) power for use in your home. Your home appliances (fridge, dishwasher, pool pumps etc.) use this power instead of drawing power from the electricity grid.

01

Solar panels capture sunlight

02

The solar inverter turns the direct current (DC) into an alternating current (AC). AC powers your home.

03

Solar batteries store excess energy for night time. 

04

A meter monitors your energy habits and use, so you can see the benefits of the solar panels.

05

Excess energy from your solar panels is pushed back out to

the grid.
