Live from the Atlantic Canada Solar Summit: Insights with Kallyn DeGrace, Clean Energy Coach

In this Solar Bite, we break down the difference between DC (direct current) and AC (alternating current) and their roles in solar energy. Learn how solar panels generate DC power, how inverters convert it to AC for household use, and why understanding this is key to going solar effectively!

DC vs. AC: Powering the Solar Revolution

In this episode, I sit down with Johan Hernström, Head of Off-Site Solar Sweden at Alight. We dive into Alight's mission to develop, own, and maintain solar farms, as well as their Power Purchase Agreements with major brands across Europe. Johan shares insights on the impressive growth of solar energy in Sweden, future projects, and how Sweden is positioning itself as a leader in renewables. We also discuss the surprising similarities between Canada and Sweden in terms of solar potential, challenges, and opportunities. Tune in to explore how both countries are closer than ever in their drive toward a sustainable future.
