Top Five Benefits of Solar Electricity

Solar power is the conversion of energy from sunlight into electricity, either directly using photovoltaics (PV), or indirectly using concentrated solar power. Photovoltaic works during the day when the sun is not hiding behind the clouds and generates megawatts of clean, zero-emissions energy.  You can then either use the solar power as it is created or export it to the grid and earn credits.

A few of the benefits of using solar power are:

• Drastically reduce or even eliminate your electric bills

• Reduce carbon pollution from coal, oil, gas and nuclear power plants

• Protected against rising energy costs

• Environmentally friendly

• Solar power is a reliable energy system
