Every panel has cells that are linked together and made up of an element called silicon, a semiconductor which has electronic properties that generate an electric field when the sunlight hits the panel’s surface. The electricity generated in this process is called direct current or DC electricity, which should be changed into alternating current or AC with helpof equipment called an inverter. Why? Because AC is the type of current that powers our home appliances and other devices.

The alternating current is funneled into the breaker box to be distributed to any appliance in your home that is using electricity. It works the same way as the traditional power grid from your utility company, the benefit is that you are saving on your bill while using your own energy.

It depends mainly on the energy needs you have. According to your home’s consumption,
you will need a different amount of solar panels, so the cost can vary.

To give you an approximate cost we need to know your energy consumption and the
installation and system type you want for your home. Every project is customized
according to your energy needs.

The main benefits of going solar are:

• Energy independence: in case of power outages or if your energy service is unreliable.
• Savings on your electric bill: with the solar panels you can produce up to 100% of the energy consumed by your household.
• Environmental protection: by installing a solar system you are contributing to a more sustainable future by reducing your carbon footprint.

The need of each person, house or company is totally different. You may need energy
according to the consumption you currently have or something you are projecting for the
future. As a result of that, the cost of solar panels can vary. Every project is customized
according to your energy needs and the system type you request.

Solar panels are made up of an element called silicon, a semiconductor that is the second most abundant element on Earth, which has electronic properties that generate an electric field when the sunlight hits the panel’s surface. The electricity generated in this process is called direct current or DC electricity, which should be changed into alternating current or AC with help of equipment called an inverter.

As the electric current is generated in the solar panel, it flows through a conductive wire which transmits the DC electricity to the inverter to transform it into usable energy (AC).

The alternating current is funneled into the breaker box to be distributed to any appliance in your home that is using electricity.
