Hybrid Solar
How does a hybrid solar system work?
A hybrid solar system consists of solar panels, a battery bank, and a hybrid inverter. Batteries store energy for later use, whereas solar panels convert sunlight into power.
Because hybrid solar systems can operate both on and off the grid, you can keep using solar power even if the grid goes down.
- Modern hybrid systems combine solar and battery storage in one and are now available in many different forms and configurations.
- Due to the decreasing cost of battery storage, systems that are already connected to the electricity grid can start taking advantage of battery storage as well.
- This means being able to store solar energy that is generated during the day and using it at night.
- When the stored energy is depleted, the grid is there as a back up, allowing consumers to have the best of both worlds.
How are hybrid solar systems operated?
With a solar hybrid energy system, you may power your home with clean energy produced by solar photovoltaic (PV) panels. Intelligent switching between grid electricity, battery storage, and solar power is exhibited by hybrid solar systems. You can save money on bills by not utilizing the grid power during peak hours.
The rooftop solar panels provide renewable energy that is stored by the system. The device automatically turns on and powers all of the necessary loads in your home during a storm or power outage. Maintaining a working refrigerator, lit lights, and fully charged phones and tablets.
