How Solar Works.
Rooftop solar uses photovoltaic (PV) cells to convert sunlight into a useful form of energy, electricity, reducing the need for fossil fuels. These PV cells in the panel absorb sunlight, causing electric charges to move around inside the cells. This movement of charges creates electricity which can be used to power appliances.
Rooftop solar systems use a two-way flow of electricity with the grid, enabling them to return surplus generated power back into the network. Homes draw grid power if the solar panels don’t generate enough to cover demand, and extra solar power goes back into the grid, often resulting in credits with the energy provider that can be used against future energy bills.

Even More Savings!
Selling Surplus Electricity with Feed-in Tariffs (FiTs)
A FiT is a credit you can receive for any unused electricity sent back to the grid. Also known as a buy-back rate, it’s usually a set rate per kilowatt hour paid as a credit on your energy bills.
