title: "The Future of Living: Unlocking the Benefits of an All-Electric Home"
description: "An all-electric home operates entirely on electricity, without the need for gas or other fossil fuels. Often referred to as zero-carbon or cleantech homes, they’re considered the gold standard for sustainable living today.

An all-electric home includes:

Solar panels convert sunlight into electricity and you don’t need a sunny day to generate power – you can do so as long as it’s a bright day
Battery storage systems allow excess energy generated by solar panels to be used later (particularly when the demand for electricity is at its peak, so it’s more expensive to get from your energy supplier). 

Heat pump systems are powered by electricity produced by your solar panels, and move heat between the indoors and outdoors. "
