When the solar panels can generate more electricity than the electrical system demands, all the energy demanded is supplied by the panels, and the excess is used to charge the batteries.

When your home needs the power stored in your battery, a multi-mode inverter in your battery flips the current from DC to AC, and the current flows through a panel box to the systems that need power.

Solar Panel Functionality: Solar panels use photovoltaic (PV) cells to convert sunlight into direct current (DC) electricity, which is then transformed into alternating current (AC) for home use through inverters.

At a high level, solar panels are made up of solar cells, which absorb sunlight. They use this sunlight to create direct current (DC) electricity through a process called "the photovoltaic effect."

Regardless of system type, the working principle remains the same: PV modules convert sunlight into direct current (DC) electricity, which is then converted into alternating current (AC) by an inverter, enabling power
