Health Measures

Be a good neighbor and check on the elderly, disabled, and children who are home alone during a power outage. They may need your help. Also, try to conserve electricity between the hours of 5 to 9 a.m. and 4 to 7 p.m. This helps prevent power emergencies.

A home solar panel system consists of several solar panels, an inverter, a battery, a charge regulator, wiring, and support materials. Sunlight is absorbed by the solar panels and is converted to electricity by the installed system. The battery stores electricity that can be used at a later time, like cloudy days or during the evening.  Learn more about solar.
