How Solar Works

This is how we make going solar simple

When you install a solar energy system on your property, you can save money on your electricity bills and protect yourself against rising electricity rates in the future.

1. Solar Panels Collect Sunlight

Every Solar Panel used in the Unicity install process are made up of photovoltaic (PV) Cells. When the sunlight hits your solar panels, the PV cells produce

2. Power is Converted into Usable Electricity

On the back of each solar panel is a micro-inverter. The Micro-Inverter converts DC electricity into “Alternating Current” (AC) electricity needed to power your home.

3. Electricity Flows into Your Net Meter

Usable electricity flows from the panels into the net meter. The net meter is just like a standard utility meter, but it measures the electricity you’re drawing from the grid, and the excess electricity your solar panels are producing and sending into the grid.

4. Use the Electricity Produced by the Sun

After flowing through the net meter, electricity is distributed into your home to power items like your refrigerator, air conditioner, and other appliances. If your solar panels don’t produce enough energy for your needs, additional power is drawn from the grid.

Solar Tax Benefits

Thanks to the Solar Investment Tax Credit (ITC), you can potentially receive a 30% federal tax credit. The Tax Credit will continue to decrease each year so now’s the best time for solar.

This is money that can apply back into your solar loan program, or pocket the credit for other expenses. The choice is yours.

Naso, Charles, Kenny, and Micah were our install crew. They arrived on time and after introducing themselves got to work. They finished installing 31 panels much quicker than I expected. After explaining what comes next they cleaned up, gathered their equipment and went on their way. I am very pleased with the job they did.

A guy named Mike was kind enough to stop and help me change my tire in a gas station parking lot he saw I was having a hard time getting my tire loose. I just wanted to say even though I’m not a customer, if this is the type of individuals you employ If I decide to get solar on my home I will definitely be calling you! I just wanted to thank mike again for the help. Thank you!!!
