A solar system works by harnessing the sun’s power and turning it into electricity. The technology used to convert solar energy into electricity is referred to as photovoltaics or PV. PV technology utilizes solar panels that absorb photons from sunlight to create electricity. Solar panels are typically placed on rooftops or fields where they can receive direct sunlight.
Solar panels are designed to work in all climates so any home can be fitted for solar energy. A solar energy expert will help you assess your home and find the most suitable position for solar panels. In cases where your rooftop is obstructed by trees or other shading structures, the solar expert will advise on an alternative solar panel location for your home.
