1. Know how much electricity your appliances use. By knowing how much energy your fridge, microwave,

washing machine, or laptop need to function, you can better plan out when to use them.

For instance, it’s better to use your washing machine on a bright, sunny day (since it uses a large amount of electricity) rather than on a cloudy day.

When you use high-energy appliances during a time when your panels are producing lots of electricity, you prevent your house from using electricity from the national grid, which will cost more money.

2. Do laundry during the day. Along those same lines, do your electricity-consuming

activities like using the washing machine, dryer, and dishwasher during the day. Plan on always doing these things in the daytime so that you don’t use up all the precious stored energy at night

3. Get the right solar system size. Appropriately sizing your solar

panel system is critical if you really do want to save money.

That’s why it’s so important to know how much electricity you typically use both day and night.

Undersizing is actually better than oversizing what you’ll need, simply because you’ll save more money that way.

4. Check your inverter. Solar panels come with an

inverter that converts the electricity generated by the panels into an energy form that appliances like toasters and fridges can use.

The inverter shows how much electricity is being generated at that moment, which is why it’s a helpful tool in analyzing when to use certain appliances and for how long.

5. Replace old appliances with new ones. Get rid of those decade-old devices or appliances that are

sucking up and wasting electricity. By buying newer, more energy-efficient appliances, you’ll be saving so much money.

6. Don’t leave unused devices on or plugged in. Many people don’t realize that leaving laptops, phones, and

other devices they’re not using at the moment turned on and plugged in consumes quite a bit of energy. Don’t pay for wasted energy. Turn these devices off and unplug them.

7. Improve insulation in your home. A house that’s horribly insulated is going to require large

amounts of energy to stay cool or heated. That’s bad news for your energy bill, even if you do have solar panels. If you want to see even more savings benefits from your solar panels, improve the insulation in your home.

8. Always be monitoring. Always be conscious of

how much energy and electricity you’re using. Don’t go weeks or months without reevaluating your energy-consuming habits or checking your solar panel system’s inverter.
