How does a Solesia PV System work? The electricity is DC (Direct Current). An inverter converts it to AC (Alternating Current, to match mains electricity) so that it can be used normally. Daylight hits the PV tile and is converted to clean electricity. There are no moving parts, so this happens silently. This illustration diagrammatically represents the production of electricity from light using Solesia PV systems. All electrical connections and meters are contained within the building envelope. The Solesia PV roofing system is connected to the mains via a fuse box, for safety. The PV roof...

How can solar energy work for you? Why install a PV system? What are feed-in tariffs?
