How Solar Energy Works

  1. 1 Sunlight hits the solar panels.
  2. 2 Direct current (DC) flows from the panels to an inverter that turns it into alternating current (AC).
  3. 3 Transformer increases voltage of electricity.
  4. 4 Electricity travels through transmission lines.
  5. 5 Transformer decreases voltage of electricity.
  6. 6 Electricity travels through collection lines.
  7. 7 Electricity is delivered to customers.

Utility-scale solar facilities harness energy from the sun, a nearly infinite resource, providing a stable energy resource.

Public Health Benefits

Public Health Benefits

Solar energy is clean and safe, and helps promote cleaner air and cleaner water, which benefits everyone.

Emission-Free Energy

Emission-Free Energy

125 million metric tons of CO2 emissions avoided annually from solar energy

Saving Water Resources

Saving Water Resources

Solar energy conserves water when compared to other energy generation sources. Once operational, solar panels do not utilize water to generate electricity, and require minimal water for maintenance.

Solar in Arizona

Arizona ranks 5th in the nation for installed solar capacity with over 9.5 gigawatts of solar energy, enough to power 1.4 million homes. The solar industry supports over 9,000 Arizona jobs, and that number will continue to grow.
