How A Solar Module System Works to Brighten Your Everyday Life
The 4kW Solar Module System Explained
Solar power is usable energy generated from the sun in the form of electric energy. Although solar energy is captured in a variety of ways, the most common form is photovoltaic solar panels that convert the sun’s rays into usable electricity in your home.
Your 4KW solar array will be connected to a grid-tied system that takes the extra energy generated after your household consumption and feeds it directly to the local grid. This type of system allows homeowners to use their own solar energy first, and will generate up to 4kW of peak power and 5,000 kWh per year.
While homeowners with solar panels are able to generate a generous portion of their annual energy requirements from their rooftop system, did you know that the average Canadian usage ranges between 5000 kWh and 13,000 kWh per year? An energy-efficient household can help you virtually eliminate all or the majority of hydro costs.
The benefits behind a solar module systems for your household:
- Reduce or eliminate hydro bills
- Reduce impacts of utility inflation
- Step towards energy independence
- Increased property value
- Environmental protection
TIP: Even if you don’t produce 100 percent of the energy you consume, solar energy will reduce your utility bills which will in turn save you tens of thousands over your life in your new Terra View home. You could be earning $60,000 in energy savings!
We want to give our homeowners control and awareness over their energy usage, and in today’s world of increased hydro usage and over consumption throughout the home, solar power is one of the most inexpensive, reliable, and cleanest ways to fuel our future!
