For businesses and homeowners that have made the switch to solar energy, there may come a time when you want to upgrade your system. Maybe you’ve outgrown your current system or maybe you’re just looking for ways to make your home or business more sustainable. Whatever the reason, there are many different upgrades available for solar energy systems. 

Adding Panels

Increasing the number of solar panels on your system can increase its output, meaning more energy is generated. This can help you get more out of your system, whether it’s savings on energy bills or increased sustainability.

Upgrading to Newer Panels

Newer solar panels are more efficient than older models, meaning they can generate more power. This can help reduce the overall cost of your system and make it even more effective. Some systems can be upgraded with larger panels with relative ease and minimal cost, depending on how the system was originally installed. 

Inverter Upgrade

Inverters take the electrical from the solar panels which is DC and converts this to AC for your home to use. A solar inverter upgrade can increase the efficiency of your solar energy system. Newer inverters are able to convert more energy into usable power, making them a great option for businesses and homeowners looking to get more out of their solar energy investments.

Battery Storage

Battery storage allows you to store excess energy produced by your system for later use. This can also keep loads up and running in the event of an outage. We typically recommend battery backups for the following situations:

• Frequent power outages

• Long-term power outages

• Medical needs requiring ongoing power

• Work-from-home individuals

• Significant refrigeration needs

Protective Barrier for Critter Issues and Leaf Build Up

If you’re dealing with critter issues or leaf buildup on your solar panels, a protective barrier could be the answer. This barrier can help keep pests and debris from clogging your system and reduce maintenance needs. Squirrels enjoy nesting under solar panels and can actually chew their way through wiring and other components. A barrier can provide an extra layer of protection.
