The main difference between solar panels and grid electricity is that solar panels allow you to generate your own renewable energy on-site from sunlight, while grid electricity is supplied by utility companies, often sourced from a mix of renewable and non-renewable energy, and can be subject to price fluctuations and outages.
By installing solar panels, you can achieve a level of energy independence, reduce or eliminate your electricity bills, and even earn credits or payments through net metering programs by supplying excess energy back to the grid. Solar energy systems also provide a hedge against rising electricity costs and enhance the value of your property.
Grid electricity provides a constant supply of power but leaves consumers vulnerable to rate increases, service interruptions, and contributes to environmental issues if the energy comes from fossil fuels. Dependence on the grid also means less control over your energy source and its environmental footprint.
