Energy from ATP cause confirmational change in the solute carrier complex. From energy of one ATP, three  pumped outside and two  ions taken in. this process of expelling out  ions and drawing in  ions against the concentration gradient and electrochemical gradient is called sodium-potassium exchange pump of the cell.
