Frequently Asked Questions

Installing Solar Panels

  • Solar panels can help lower your electricity bills, increase your home’s energy efficiency, and reduce your dependence on traditional energy providers because you’re producing your own energy.  They’re a great way to reduce your carbon footprint and help the environment. You can leverage the energy created to do more like charge your electric vehicle.

  • Solar energy is one of the most abundant energy resources on Earth. Every hour, the sun beams more energy onto our planet than we need to satisfy global energy needs for an entire year. Solar panels convert sunlight into electricity. They use cells to capture sunlight and generate direct current (DC) electricity. An inverter then changes this to alternating current (AC), which powers your home.

  • Savings depend on your energy usage, system size, and local energy rates. Many of our customers see significant reductions in their bills, and some even eliminate them entirely.

  • Installation usually takes 1-2 days, depending on the system's complexity. We aim to make the process as smooth and hassle-free as possible.
