How does solar work?

Texas Best Solar explains solar in five simple steps

Solar in 5 simple steps:​

​

  1. Solar cells, also called photovoltaic (PV) cells (photo meaning “light” and voltaic meaning “electricity”), convert the sun’s energy into electricity using semiconductors typically made of silicon
     

  2. The internal circuitry in the panel converts the sun’s rays into Direct Current (DC) electricity. 
     

  3. The DC electricity is sent to a solar inverter where it gets converted into Alternating Current (AC) electricity, the most commonly used form of electricity in homes and businesses today 
     

  4. The AC electricity flows through the inverter to the breaker box, which directs the electricity to power lights, appliances and other electronic devices in your home, including powering your electric vehicle 
     

  5. Unused electricity is then fed back to the grid to offset or for purchase

Benefits to your bottom line

Save money on your energy bills

​

Whether you pay for solar upfront or finance it over time, you are locking in your energy rate for the foreseeable future. And, for most who choose to finance, the cost of the loan is often smaller than their monthly electric bill, so the offset is net positive on their monthly budget.

Energy independence

​

Although most structures are still connected to the grid, going solar is a step in the right direction for energy independence so that entire communities are less reliant on the overburdened energy infrastructure.
