Solar PV Systems
Solar power works by converting light from the sun into electricity. This electricity can then be used in your home or exported to the grid when it''s not needed (Soon to be available in Guyana). This is done by installing Solar Panels on your roof which generates DC (Direct Current) electricity. This is then fed into a solar
