How Solar Actually Works
From sunlight to electricity — four steps.
Solar isn't magic. It's a series of well-understood physical processes. Here's exactly what happens between the sun hitting your roof and the lights coming on.
Inverter Converts
A hybrid inverter changes DC into the AC electricity your home runs on — and can charge a battery.
Powers Your Home
Electricity flows directly to your appliances first. Your home uses what you produce in real-time.
Stores or Exports
Excess charges your battery or exports to the grid — your meter runs backward, crediting your account.
The Math Is Clear
Rates have risen 200% in 15 years. They're not stopping.
New England has some of the highest and fastest-rising electricity costs in the country. Supply, delivery, transmission, distribution, modernization, and storm-hardening charges all compound — even if you don't change anything.
Do Nothing → $108,000+20-year utility spend at 7% annual rate growth.
Go Solar → ~$34,000Fixed payments, paid off in year 12. Years 13–25 are essentially free.
Why New England is ideal for solar
High utility rates = faster paybackThe more expensive your electricity, the faster solar pays off.
Strong net metering policiesNH and ME offer 1-for-1 retail credit for exported electricity.
30% Federal Tax Credit (ITC)Reduces your system cost by nearly a third.
Battery storage for winter outagesNew England averages 7+ hours of outages per home per year.
