Hello, Guest

On-grid Solar Power System is the most popular power system used by a maximum number of people. Since the rapid advancements of technology in the field of solar energy has increased, people are using solar power system more and more. What is the on-grid solar power system? The on-grid solar system is a solar PV system, which is used to generate power when the utility power grid is available. The on-grid system is connected to the utility grid to send excess power generated back to the grid when you overproduce, and hence you credit it for later use.

The electricity produced by the on-grid system routes to the grid from where it is used by the consumers to run their various appliances. One of the foremost benefits of this system is to pay for itself by offsetting utility bills even in 3-8 years. Furthermore, the on-grid solar power system is the most cost-effective to purchase, fuss-free, useful to reduce carbon footprint, easy to install, and easy to maintain.

The on-grid solar power system is also known as a grid-tie solar system widely used by homes and businesses. This type of power system does not need any battery and uses common solar inverters by connecting to the public electricity grid. The on-grid solar panel system is unable to generate electricity during a blackout due to safety reasons. However, it only works when there is a constant electricity supply from the power grid.

SolarClue is one of the best platforms where people can purchase an on-grid solar system for different capacities such as 1kw, 2kws, 3kws, 5kws, and 10kws. The on-grid solar power system price varies from one brand to another available with SolarClue.

Benefits of using on-grid solar power system

1. Zero Electricity Bills: The consumers do require to pay only for the surplus electricity they consume because the solar on-grid system is installed even on the rooftop and connected to the utility grid. However, the excess electricity feds back in the grid if the consumers utilize less electricity on any month.

2. Easy Maintenance and Simple Installation: Since the on-grid solar power system even in India is operated not to using any battery, which makes its maintenance quite easy. Further, it is operated using the least number of parts hence known for simple installation.

3. Passive Income Generation: The consumer can charge for the surplus electricity, which he or she generates because the on-grid power system generally connects to the grid. It provides cost benefits for the excess electricity generated and also eliminates your electricity bills.

Some other advantages of the on-grid solar power system are as follows:

• Fully utilizes the solar in priority and then remaining power take from the grid

• Uses as the most economically viable system where battery bank is not required

• Helps to lower your fuel consumption even to run the generator when the power goes off

• Reduces both the power and diesel consumption

How does on-grid solar power system work?

The arrangement of solar modules or on-grid solar power plant works in such a way to absorb the sunlight and convert it into electricity. The electricity generated here in the solar on-grid power system is Direct Current (DC). And the solar inverter then converts the DC to Alternating Current (AC), thus making it power the electrical items.

This electricity with the use of net meter is then routed to the grid and supplied for day to day use. The net meter is a device that records the energy supplied to the grid and the energy consumed. At the end of each month, the outstanding is recorded and provided to the consumer with a bill.

It is recommended to use the on-grid solar power system if you want to reduce your electricity bill and having a reliable grid where power cut happens in the day time and less than 2 hours.

The solar power system is a complete setup ideal for home and commercial places, which helps in producing electricity by utilizing solar energy (sunlight). A solar power system is made up of solar panel (which absorbs sunlight), inverter (which converts DC electricity into AC), mounting structure (which holds the panels in place), batteries (helps to store the extra power generated), grid box and balance of systems (wires, nuts).

In other words, a solar power system is composed of numerous photovoltaic (PV) panels, inverter (a Dc to AC power converter), and a rack system that holds the PV panels in place (solar PV panels on the roofs of homes and businesses generate clean electricity by converting the energy in sunlight). Solar power system comes in 1 kW, 3kW, 5kW, 10kW, and several other capacities. It is a good choice for those who want to reduce their electric bills and their carbon footprint.

As the prices of electricity are rising, people across the world looking for renewable energy sources for their power, or electricity needs. Solar energy has now become a popular renewable energy source because of its cost-effective price and improving efficacies. And for this reason, the solar system for home has stepped forward in the market with its great features.

On-Grid Solar System

The on-grid solar system or Grid-tied solar system is a kind of solar system that generates current only when the utility power grid is available. In other words, the on-grid system is a solar system that generally works with the grid. Saving the electricity bill is the prime purpose of installing an on-grid solar system.

The on-grid solar power system consists of Solar Photovoltaic modules / Panels, DC-AC grid-tied solar Inverter and Installation Kit (includes mounting structures, ACDB, DCDB, A.C, D.C wire, Connectors, lighting arrestor, earthling cables).

The foremost benefit of installing an on-grid solar system for home is a cost-effective solution, which helps to pay for such systems by offsetting utility bills in 3-8 yrs. In addition to this, there are some other advantages of the on-grid solar system, including:

• Zero electricity bills (consumer has to pay only for the surplus electricity he consumes because the solar power system is connected to the grid only).

• Easy maintenance (on-grid solar power system has the least number of parts along with simple installation or fitting).

• Passive income generation (with connection to the grid, the consumer can charge for the surplus electricity he has generated, which is not only beneficial in reducing your electricity bills but also helps to avail the cost benefits for the excess electricity generated).

• Provides you with at least 5 years' payback time and free electricity for the next 20 years.

Moreover, the on-grid solar system is simple enough that anyone can install it by himself. The on-grid solar system price is affordable that anyone can purchase it by investing at pocket-friendly prices.

Off-Grid Solar System

The off-grid solar system is a popular type of solar power system with backup, which works both day and night. During the day time, solar panel charges the battery to run the home appliances with the use of DC, and at night or cloudy weather days when the sunlight is not available, inverter runs your home appliances (Air Conditioners, Cooler, Television and submersible pump, etc.) using the battery power or AC current.

The off-grid solar system allows you to store your solar power in batteries for future use, especially when the power grid goes down or if you are not on the grid. Hybrid systems are capable of providing power to balance the grid power whenever the sun shines, which enable to send excess power to the grid for later use.

The utmost benefit of using an off-grid solar system is to provide power for your critical loads when the power grid becomes down. An off-grid system is more prevalent that comes with a power backup and works independently of the grid.

Benefits of using off-grid solar system:

• Works as a self-sustainable system that can work independently and not depending on the grid

• Helps in avoiding power outages, which may occur without any warning

• Helps in generating enough power that can be stored and used at night or when the power grid is down

• Reduces electricity costs (fossil fuels are still the world's primary energy source)

• Easier installation facilities

• Best alternative for remote areas where there is no power access from the grid

• Keeps the environment clean and green

Hybrid Solar System

The hybrid solar system is another type of solar power system that generates power or electricity supply in the same way as the common grid-tie solar system does. The only difference of a hybrid solar system is that such a system uses batteries to store energy for later usage. A hybrid solar system can operate as backup power, and it is possible because of the ability to use the maximum amount of stored energy (uses this energy during a blackout which is similar to a UPS system).

The term ‘hybrid solar system’ refers to a combination of battery storage and solar systems in which the off-grid system is connected to the electricity grid. Hybrid solar system is classified into three types such as All-in-one Hybrid Inverter (which contains a battery inverter/charger and solar inverter together with clever controls), All-in-one Inverter with no Back-up (works like a grid feed solar inverter which enables storage of solar energy in the battery system for the self-use), and All-in-one Inverter with Back-up (used as both an on-grid or off-grid inverter, which has a great backup capability).

Advantages of hybrid solar system:

• Allows consumers to store excess solar power or low cost (off-peak) electricity

• Allows using of solar energy during the evening times (known as self-use or load-shifting)

• Facilitates with backup power capability that helps to provide power during a blackout or grid outage like a UPS function

• Enables advanced management of electricity power and energy independence

• Reduces the power consumption from the grid

Solar Accessories

Solar accessories are important for all your small and large-scale power generation requirements. The main accessories used in solar power system installation are Batteries, Solar Charge Controllers, Off-Grid Solar Panels, and Solar Battery Enclosures.

Solar batteries: Solar batteries for home energy systems are made using lithium-ion batteries (lighter and more compact than lead-acid batteries) rather than lead-acid, and saltwater. Lead-acid batteries are used in off-grid energy systems that have a relatively short life, and lower DoD than other battery types. Saltwater batteries (newcomer in the home energy storage industry) don’t contain heavy metals as compared to other home energy storage options. Solar batteries are considered the best in terms of battery capacity & power ratings, depth of discharge (DoD), round-trip efficiency, warranty, and finest manufacturing facilities.

Solar charge controllers: Solar charge controllers are a voltage regulator to keep batteries from overcharging and also regulates the current coming from the solar panels going to the battery. A solar charge controller is categorized into two different technologies, PWM and MPPT. An MPPT charge controller is more expensive than a PWM charge controller but worth buying it even if expending more money.

Off-grid solar panels: This particular solar panel consists of a battery, charge controller, grid box, inverter, mounting structure, and balance of systems. Off-grid solar panels can store enough sunlight during the day, and use the excess power generated in the night.

Solar battery enclosures: Solar battery enclosures are used to keep your batteries safe from weather, and safe from theft. It is attributed with feature locking mechanisms that protect unauthorized people against possible electrical dangers if they happen to be tampering with your equipment. Battery enclosures for solar systems are pole-mounted or ground-mounted and suitable for indoor and outdoor applications.
