Types of systems
 

is a solar energy setup that is connected to the local electricity grid. It generates electricity from solar panels, which is used to power your home or business. Any excess energy produced by the solar panels is sent back to the grid. This system allows you to draw power from the grid when your solar panels aren’t producing enough (e.g., at night or on cloudy days) and send surplus energy back when your panels generate more than you need, providing both energy savings and greater energy reliability. Grid-tied systems are popular because they don’t require battery storage and are often more affordable while offering the flexibility to balance energy needs.

operates independently of the electricity grid, providing power solely through solar panels and battery storage. This system is ideal for locations without access to the grid or for those seeking complete energy independence. The solar panels generate electricity during the day, which is stored in batteries for use when sunlight isn’t available generators can also be used, such as at night or on cloudy days. Off-grid systems require careful planning to ensure sufficient energy storage and reliable power supply throughout the year.

combines the benefits of both grid-tied and off-grid systems. It is connected to the utility grid and includes battery storage, allowing you to store excess solar energy for later use. This system provides energy security by enabling you to use stored power during outages or at night, while also drawing from the grid when solar production is insufficient. Hybrid systems offer greater flexibility, ensuring a reliable power supply and the potential for energy independence while still benefiting from grid access.
