You can power your entire house using solar energy. By installing solar panels, you can generate electricity from sunlight and run your home's appliances, lighting, and other electrical systems. An inverter converts the solar-generated electricity into a usable form, and batteries can store excess energy for use during cloudy days or at night. Factors like your energy consumption, the size of the solar system, available sunlight, and location are all important. Our professional installers will help you determine the right setup for your needs.

A typical home needs between 17 and 21 solar panels to cover 100 percent of its electricity usage. The number of panels you'll need to install depends on your geographic location, panel efficiency, panel-rated power, and personal energy consumption habits. While the answer isn't always simple, we've put together some example cases to help you understand how many solar panels you might need to install an effective home solar system.
