What Is Solar Energy?

Solar energy is harnessed from the sun with advanced technologies. Solar energy is an abundant renewable energy source that can be used to power various devices. Solar energy is converted into usable electricity through solar panels.

How Do Solar Panels Work?

Solar panel systems are a fantastic technology that has revolutionized how Californians access energy. Our solar panel systems are designed to provide a clean energy source for your home. How do they work?

1. West Coast Solar designs and installs a custom home solar power system according to various specifications and factors.
2. Solar panels are devices typically made from silicon, which can conduct and generate electricity. The panels work with an inverting system to convert and disperse energy.
3. Once the solar panel system is installed and operational, the solar panel harnesses and absorbs the sunlight and heat produced by the sun.
4. The energy captured from the sun is then converted to direct current energy, which is converted into alternating current energy through the solar power system’s inverter.
5. The AC energy flows through your home’s electrical panel.
6. Clean energy is dispersed into your home, powering everything from electronic devices to appliances and heaters.
7. Any excess energy is redirected from your home to the electrical grid.
