Photovoltaic (PV) materials and devices convert sunlight into electrical energy. A single PV device is known as a cell. An individual PV cell is usually small, typically producing about 1 or 2 watts of power. These cells are made of different semiconductor materials and are often less than the thickness of four human hairs. In order to withstand the outdoors for many years, cells are sandwiched between protective materials in a combination of glass and/or plastics.
To boost the power output of PV cells, they are connected together in chains to form larger units known as modules or panels. Modules can be used individually, or several can be connected to form arrays. One or more arrays is then connected to the electrical grid as part of a complete PV system. Because of this modular structure, PV systems can be built to meet almost any electric power need, small or large.
PV modules and arrays are just one part of a PV system. Systems also include mounting structures that point panels toward the sun, along with the components such as inverters and micro-inverters that take the direct-current (DC) electricity produced by modules and convert it to the alternating-current (AC) electricity used to power your home.

Environment
Clean, Safe, Renewable
Solar reduces the need to burn dirty power sources, like coal or gas. Homeowners become stewards of the environment by preventing 103 tons of CO2 from entering the atmosphere *, just for switching to Solar. Solar homes contribute to protecting our forests, lakes, and rivers by sparing the air and saving trees, and preventing pollution.
Home Value
SOLAR MAKES A ROOF LOOK GREAT
Advanced Solar can improve your home appraisals, too. The average Solar System purchase can increase a home resale value by $31,032*. With our system, you can relax when it’s time to sell your home.
The Solar Lease provides fixed monthly payments for the benefits of Solar Power, without requiring a loan. The Solar Lease pricing is about the same as the Power Purchase Agreement – but is averaged out over the year to give you a consistent bill. Our customers that enjoy this plan value consistency, or sometimes live on a fixed income.
The Solar Loan provides a “best of both worlds” between the Lease and Cash Purchase. The loan product keeps the tax credit for going solar in your pocket, where it belongs. Our customers that choose the Solar Loan value both long-term and immediate savings. Savings not guaranteed. Savings are based off system size and usage.
