EZ1 VOICES: “You’re Literally Plugging Into the Sun”—EWG Explains Balcony Solar 

What if you could plug in a small solar system and start offsetting the electricity used throughout your home? In this video, Bernadette Del Chiaro, Senior Vice President for California at the Environmental Working Group (EWG), explains how balcony solar works—and why it may be one of the simplest and most accessible ways to generate your own clean energy.

Using the APsystems EZ1 plug-in microinverter, solar panels can be placed on a balcony, patio, in a yard, or anywhere with suitable sunlight. The EZ1 converts the energy produced by the panels into usable household electricity, which can help power the appliances and electronics already running in your home while reducing the amount of electricity purchased from the utility.

Bernadette also breaks down the science behind solar energy, how electricity moves through a home, and why these compact, portable systems are opening the door to solar for homeowners, renters, and DIY enthusiasts.

Watch the video to see how balcony solar and the APsystems EZ1 make generating your own clean energy as simple as plugging into the sun.

Always follow applicable local requirements and APsystems installation instructions.
