Solar panels work by converting the sun’s energy into usable electricity through the use of photovoltaic cells. These cells absorb sunlight and generate direct current (DC) electricity. An inverter is then used to convert the DC electricity into alternating current (AC) electricity that can be used to power your home or business.

Net metering is a billing mechanism that credits solar energy system owners for the electricity they add to the grid. When your solar panels make more electricity than your home is using, that excess electricity is sent back to the utility grid, and your electric meter will spin backward to indicate this. The utility company then credits the value of that electricity to your account, offsetting the electricity you use from the grid when your panels are not producing enough to meet your needs.

Yes, solar panels will still produce electricity even when it’s cloudy or raining, though their output will be reduced compared to sunny conditions. Solar cells can still absorb the diffused sunlight that penetrates the cloud cover. On very overcast days, your system may only produce 10-25% of its rated capacity. However, the panels will continue to generate some power as long as there is daylight.

Yes, when designing a solar energy system, we take into account seasonal variations in sunlight and your electricity usage patterns throughout the year. The system will be sized to provide sufficient power during the winter months when daylight hours are shorter, and there may be more cloud cover. This ensures your solar panels generate enough electricity to offset your energy needs year-round.

There are a few key factors to consider when determining if your house is a good fit for solar:

Roof orientation and tilt – South-facing roofs with a 15–45-degree tilt are ideal for maximum sun exposure.

Lack of shading – Trees, chimneys, or other obstructions should not significantly shade the roof.

Available roof space – You’ll need enough unobstructed roof area to accommodate the necessary number of solar panels.

Roof condition – The roof should be in good condition and able to support the weight of the solar panels.
