Solar Panels

Solar power is probably the cleanest, most viable form of renewable energy available today.
Solar panels convert light into electricity using arrays of solar cells (also called photovoltaic cells). This electricity can then be used to power appliances in your home, or if you include a grid tie system you can actually sell unused electricity back to the grid.

Photovoltaic tiles take the place of ordinary roof tiles and can be perfectly blended to fit the look of the outside of your house.
Solar Energy has several advantages to the evironment since it is clean, renewable (unlike gas, oil and coal) and sustainable. Governments are beginning to offer grants to assist in paying for photovoltaic roof tiles, which should help making solar power more widely available in the near future.
