    and are risky if the electrical power is lost. Producing solar energy is as easy as harnessing the sun’s rays or photons and converting them into electrical energy. This is done through solar panels composed of photovoltaic (PV) or solar cells that are installed on your roof. When the sun hits a cell, the photons are converted to electrons of direct current electricity that flow through an inverter where they are then transformed into an alternating current power.
