Solar Panels: These devices convert sunlight into electric energy. They are made up of multiple solar cells, usually made of silicon, that work together in a panel.

Inverter: This device transforms the direct current (DC) electricity generated by the solar panels into alternating current (AC) electricity, which is what most household appliances use. The inverter plays a crucial role in the efficiency and performance of the system.

Battery: In some systems, a battery is used to store the electricity generated by the solar panels. This allows homeowners to use stored electricity when the sun isn’t shining, providing power even on cloudy days or at night.

Charge Controller: This device protects the battery and manages the power flow. It prevents the battery from overcharging or discharging too much.

Additional Components: Supporting structures for installation, wiring, and monitoring devices may also be included in the system.
