SOLAR SYSTEMS FOR YOUR HOME
Options for Solar on Residential Homes
Whether you’re looking to install solar for your entire home or just a few systems, we offer various solutions that can meet your energy requirements. Some of the options available for residential solar include:
-
Roof-mounted panels are ideal for most homes and make use of available roof space. For larger properties or homes with limited roof angles, ground-mounted systems offer a flexible alternative.
-
Your inverter is the heart of your solar setup. Grid-tied inverters connect directly to the power grid, while hybrid inverters let you add battery storage now or later.
-
Store unused solar energy during the day and use it at night or during outages. A great way to improve self-sufficiency and reduce reliance on the grid.
-
Set timers to run appliances like hot water cylinders or EV chargers during peak solar hours, helping you make the most of your system.
-
For properties in remote areas or with critical power needs, a generator adds an extra layer of backup when the grid or sun can’t deliver.
