Energy 101

Homeowners across the United States have turned to solar panels to generate renewable energy for their homes while supporting the environment. By generating your own power on-site with home solar panels, you take control over your electricity like never before.

Solar-powered electricity generation has evolved into one of the most efficient, inexpensive, and accessible ways for people to reduce their carbon footprint. Common uncertainties about solar panels include things like cloud cover and shade, reliability in extreme temperatures, and weather resiliency. Let’s debunk those myths:
