Off-grid systems
Off-grid systems work independently of the grid but have batteries which can store the solar power generated by the system. The system usually consists of solar panels, battery, charge controller, grid box, inverter, mounting structure and balance of systems. The panels store enough sunlight during the day and use the excess power generated in the night.
These systems are self-sustaining and can provide power for critical loads in areas where a power grid is not available. However, these systems require specialized equipment to function and can be costly to install. These are ideal for remote areas where there is no power access from the grid.
Hybrid Solar System is a combination of an on-grid solar system and off-grid solar system. It has battery backup in it to store power and it also has the ability to feed surplus electricity into the main grid.
It means that even during a power-cut your system will work, you will still have electricity. Hybrid system is a combination of solar energy storage with grid connection. This system provides the flexibility of being able to store the power into batteries that your solar system generated during the day time instead of feeding it back into the electricity grid.
