Solar Photovoltaic Specialists:

Chromagen

Enough sunlight falls on the earth every minute to meet the world's energy demands for an entire year. Utilize the energy from the sun with Chromagen's Solar Photovoltaic systems.

Chromagen's solar electricity systems generate electricity using the photovoltaic(PV) effect. When you use electricity you are using solar generated power or power from the grid if the solar energy is insufficient. If you are using little or no electricity, your solar energy system is feeding electricity back into the grid and the electric company buys that power from you. In effect, your home becomes a mini solar power station generating electricity and selling it to the grid for use by you or your neighbours.
