How Does Solar Energy Work?

In simple terms, solar energy is generated when solar panels convert sunlight into electricity. Solar modules (panels) consist of multiple photovoltaic cells that harness the energy of sunlight photons by passing it through a semiconducting material. Through a physical and chemical reaction, this process causes the generation of direct current (DC) energy which an inverter converts to alternating current (AC) to be used to power your home. By using solar power, you can reduce your power bill and your carbon footprint. If you are ready to embrace a greener way of living, call Empower Energy today.

Solar Facts

Why Solar

Reduce Your Electricity Bill

Lower your costs by reducing the amount of high variable rates you pay to utility companies and start producing your own energy.

Utilize Renewable Energy

The sun is a powerful source of clean, renewable energy that generates zero emissions when produced for your home or business.

Increase Your Property Value

In addition to being cost-saving, low-maintenance, and environmentally friendly, solar PV products can increase property value and boost buyer interest.

Reduce Your Carbon Footprint

While the manufacturing and transit of solar panels is emission-heavy, the lifetime emissions offset of a solar PV system is substantial. Switching to solar is environmentally responsible and can make a real difference for the environment.

Become A Prosumer

Spending money on energy is inevitable, so why not invest it in your own solar Micro Generation system? Produce your own energy and become a prosumer!

Earn A Return On Your Investment

A solar PV system is an investment in your future and has the potential to earn you a significant return on your investment while contributing to a diversified economy.

Our Process

1
No Obligation Info Session
Contact us for more information about our prices and to learn more about solar energy. To provide you with an accurate quote, we will need a copy of your current electrical bill. Our team will then provide a preliminary design, pricing and info package based on historical energy consumption and satellite imagery of your site.
2
Confirm Project Details
Once you approve the package, we will schedule an appointment for a site visit to confirm details such as the roof condition and surrounding shade and obstructions. We will also review all existing electrical systems and the transformer size. We will confirm the pricing and provide a purchasing agreement for you to sign.
3
Approvals & Permitting
If your package includes a grid-tied solar system, we will apply for electrical grid interconnection on your behalf. We will also submit permit applications and engineering applications, if applicable, before ordering your products and components. Together, we will schedule a date for the installation.
4
Install & Commission
Leave it to us to install and commission your solar PV system. Our team of qualified installers and electricians performs the installation efficiently and professionally. The AHJ (Authority Having Jurisdiction) and WSP (Wires Service Provider) complete the system inspection, if applicable, and the system is energized upon approval of the inspection.

Testimonials

“Empower did a great job for us. We were new to whole-home solar and Ross explained the overall process very well. He included in his assessment a dollars and cents review of what kind of energy we could expect to produce and what kind of savings$ we could expect over the lifetime of our system. The install went great. The daily monitoring we’re able to do has changed the way we use energy in our home. The apps that are available provide real-time energy consumption and energy generation data, so we can track our use and alter our habits to become more energy efficient. Our energy provider rewards us for energy produced and any excess energy is fed back into the grid, which provides offsets to our energy bills. I highly recommend working with Ross and his team at Empower!”
Jeff Donald
“Ross and his team are excellent. Our experience was positive from the first meeting at a trade show to completion of the install and flipping the switch to start feeding power to our farm and excess to the grid. The support through the application process to be a micro-generator as well as after install support has been timely and thorough. Our system has been in place for almost 10 months with positive results. Solar is the right thing to do, making a big step in reducing our carbon footprint and preserving our world for the next generation. Make the move to Solar, Ross and Empower Energy can make it happen efficiently with a quality system.”
