Ways to generate and store electricity

Solar Power (Solar photovoltaic) is a way to generate your own electricity  by converting the sun’s rays into usable power for your home or business. There are various ways to generate and store electricity. Find an option (below) that suits your needs best.

Solar Panels

An essential part to any solar system, these panels convert the sun's rays into electricity (DC)

Inverter

An inverter converts Direct Current (DC) to Alternating Current (AC) that can be used by appliances in your home.

Batteries

You can optionally store power you get from your solar panels. This way you have power even if the sun is not shining.

Smart Grid

Use your power utility only when you need it. Connect your inverter and conventional power utility for on demand power at lower electricity costs.

How does Solar Power Work?

Understanding each part and how it works

Sun Sync

Storage only power

A battery only system is charged from the grid (your power utility). This is ideal for when you need power during load shedding or other power outages.

Upgrades to include solar panels can be implemented at any time.

Grid Tied Solar

Stay connected to the grid for when you need it. Use solar power while the sun is shining.

Grid Tied Solar
Battery Storage

Hybrid Power

Like grid tied solar, you stay connected to the grid but also store power in batteries for use during load shedding or other power outages. Reverse cost on your electricity by feeding your excess stored power back into the grid.

Off-Grid Solar

An isolated solar system free from the grid that stores power in large battery banks. Load shedding becomes a thing of the past as you 100% generate your own power.
