Solar Electric:
The Sun as Your Electric Generator
Want to take advantage of free electricity? A Solar PV system from Solar wind & Rain makes it possible.
Photovoltaic energy (Photo = “Light,” “Voltaic” = after Alessandro Volta, the man who first measured electricity), first developed at Bell Labs in 1954, represents an incredible leap forward in solar energy technology. Solar PV panels actually convert sunlight directly into electricity!
Solar PV panels create electricity when photons, light particles from the sun, agitate them into producing electric current. This current then travels through wiring to your home’s existing electrical system. An attached battery can store built-up electricity for later use, or a grid-tier system can store it in your home’s electrical grid. On the sunniest days, you’ll see your meter slow down, stop, or even reverse!
Solar Wind & Rain surveys your home to determine the best system setup for your needs. Once we’ve installed the system, you’re ready to enjoy many years of reduced utility bills. And in the Texas summer, that’s a great feeling! Contact us to arrange your home survey today.
