PV (Photovoltaic) Solar – What is it?

Photovoltaic (PV) solar has many benefits. The most important feature is that solar energy is a renewable energy source. We cannot run out of solar energy, unlike some other sources of energy. Solar energy will be accessible as long as we have sunlight!

Solar photovoltaic (PV) panels on the roof of homes generate clean electricity by converting the energy from the sunlight into electricity. This electricity can be used throughout your home, stored in battery packs or filtered back into the grid.

Houses with solar systems use solar power first before sourcing electricity from the grid. At night, when the panels are not producing electricity, power is supplied from the existing electricity grid at an off-peak rate.

PV solar is a great way to lower your energy bills. Depending on how much electricity your solar system has generated, determines how much your energy bills will drop. How much you save on your bill will be dependant on the size of your solar system and your electricity usage.
