Basics of Solar PV System

The basic building block of a Solar PV system is the PV cell, which is a semiconductor device that converts solar energy into direct-current (DC). These PV cells are interconnected to strings, to form a PV module. The PV modules combined with a set of additional components that form a complete PV system.

On Grid Solar System

Also known as Stand Alone Power System (SAPS), generates electricity from solar panels that is later stored in house batteries, using a charge controller. This stored energy is used to power a particular household.

Off Grid Solar System

Third-party ownership still remains the dominant model for financing solar installations, at least for residential and commercial systems, but times are changing. PV systems continue to get cheaper and it is now easier than ever to access low-cost financing.

Battery Storage

Solar batteries are designed to connect with solar charger controller or solar inverter for power backup.

All types of solar system run the connected load in the day time and export the extra electricity to batteries.
