FAQs

Solar panels work by converting sunlight into electricity through photovoltaic cells. These cells capture sunlight and convert it into direct current (DC), which is then transformed into usable alternating current (AC) by an inverter. The benefits for your home include reduced electricity bills, a lower carbon footprint, and potential government incentives for adopting solar technology.
