How Solar for Your Business Works
1
Solar panels convert photons of sunlight into direct current (DC) electricity
2
An inverter converts DC energy from the panels into alternating current (AC) electricity for your business
3
The AC electricity is sent from the inverter to the main electrical panel to power the building with solar energy
4
A smart meter measures both your solar production and energy use. When you produce more solar energy than you need, the meter spins backward and you receive a credit from your utility
5
When you are not producing solar energy, the utility supplies your electricity. Your utility bill is offset by the solar energy you produce everyday
