Solar Off-Grid System
Off-grid systems work independently of the grid but have batteries that 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 businesses that can sustain for a short period of time with no electricity.
DESCRIPTION
Applications:
- Electricity supply in rural and remote areas – Off-grid solar systems can facilitate independent, long-term, and sustainable electricity generation in rural and remote areas.
- Power back up in areas with frequent electricity cuts – A number of places in India face frequent power cuts due to power transmission malfunctions, which can hamper operations of companies and public institutions. Off-grid solar systems can provide an economical and viable long-term backup solution to overcome the problems occurring during frequent power cuts.
Advantages:
- These self-sustainable systems can work independently and do not rely on the grid.
- They generate enough power that can be stored and used at night or when the power grid is down.
- These are ideal for remote areas where there is no power access from the grid.
- Grid failures and shutdowns will not affect your power supply.
