On Grid Hybrid Inverter
An on-grid hybrid solar system combines the advantages of a traditional on-grid system with the flexibility of a battery backup. This setup allows you to connect to the main power grid while also having the option to store excess energy in batteries. Here’s a closer look at what this system offers, how it works, and its benefits:
1. How On-Grid Hybrid Solar Systems Work
Primary Power Source: The system primarily draws energy from solar panels, which generate electricity by converting sunlight into DC power. This is then converted into AC power through an inverter, suitable for household or industrial use.
Battery Storage: Unlike typical on-grid systems, which only feed excess power back to the grid, a hybrid system includes batteries. Any surplus energy can be stored in these batteries for later use, especially useful during power outages or at night.
Grid Connection: The system remains connected to the power grid, which acts as a backup energy source when solar or stored energy runs out. This gives flexibility in managing electricity needs efficiently.
2. Benefits of On-Grid Hybrid Solar Systems
Energy Independence: With a battery backup, you’re not solely dependent on the grid, allowing greater resilience during outages.
Cost Savings: By storing excess energy and using it during peak times, you can reduce your electricity bills even further compared to a conventional on-grid system.
Environmentally Friendly: Maximizing self-consumption of solar energy reduces reliance on fossil fuels, contributing to environmental conservation.
Flexibility in Energy Usage: Hybrid systems allow you to decide when to use stored energy versus grid energy, offering control over energy costs.
