Solar energy helps families save money by converting solar energy into electricity. This happens when a solar panel captures UV rays from the sun. It then converts those rays into direct current (DC) electricity. The DC needs to be converted to alternating current (AC) because that is what is used in a home.
This method creates energy savings for residential users because the photovoltaic solar system will collect any surplus energy collected by the solar panel during the day and will then draw from this bank of energy at night when the sun isn’t out.
How much energy a household uses
Solar panels can be installed on almost any kind of roof, including s-tile, tar and gravel, metal wood shake, cement tile and composite. Depending on the roof, the cost of the installation will vary.
The amount of roof space needed for an installation will also vary and depends on how much energy a household uses. The average solar system uses between 300 and 600 square feet of roof space for the solar panels.
