How It Works
Each solar panel in solar panel installations is made up of small photovoltaic (PV) cells that absorb photons emitted from the sun. This process generates free electricity through the photovoltaic effect, which can be used in your home.
Additionally, the electricity generated can be stored in a battery and released when needed, maximising the benefits of your solar panel installations.
In principle, power generation can be divided into two steps
Energy production
When light falls on the photovoltaic (PV) modules, electrons are released in the solar cells. The positive or negative charge carriers collect at the electrical contacts, which creates a DC voltage between the front and back of the cell.
This photoelectric effect does not require any mechanical or chemical reactions and is therefore wear-free and maintenance-free.
Power conversion
The direct current generated by the solar panels is then converted from DC into grid-compliant AC alternating current by an inverter. Tested to safety standards and sophisticated processor technology as well as the latest generation of power electronics ensure effective conversion of the solar power. The alternating current generated can then be used in your own home or stored in a battery storage unit for use when you most need it.
