Solar Cells
Photovoltaic cells are the basic building blocks of solar electric systems. They are composed of ultra-thin layers of silicon. When sunlight strikes the surface of the cell, an electrical field is created resulting in a flow of electricity.
  How it works

Photovoltaic cells are connected together to form units called modules. Modules are then connected together to form even larger units called arrays.

An inverter converts the electricity collected by the solar array from direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC) which can be used as a source of power.

The clean, renewable energy generated by your solar electric system can be used to power lighting, computers, air conditioning and other daily electrical loads in a building. Surplus electricity generated by the solar array flows back into the regional utility grid for use by other customers.
