Grid Tied Energy Solutions
Grid Tie Solar Backup Solution (most cost effective)
An on-grid or grid-tied solar solution is a type of solar energy system that is connected to the utility grid, allowing the system to work in conjunction with the grid to provide electricity to your home or business during loadshedding power outages.
In an on-grid solar system, solar panels are installed on your roof or in a nearby location, and the DC power generated by the solar panels is sent to an inverter that converts it into AC power that can be used to power your home or business through loadshedding. Any excess power generated by the system is sent back to the utility grid, which can be credited towards your electricity bill through a process called net metering.
One of the main benefits of an on-grid solar system is that it can greatly reduce your reliance on the grid during loadshedding and lower your energy costs over time. By generating your own electricity for your business or home, you can reduce your consumption of grid power and potentially earn credits on your electricity bill for any excess energy you generate.
Another benefit of on-grid solar systems is their simplicity and affordability. Since they do not require a battery backup system, they are typically less expensive to install and maintain than off-grid solar solutions.
However, one of the drawbacks of an on-grid solar system is that it does not provide backup power during loadshedding power outages. This is because the solar backup system is designed to shut off automatically in the event of a power outage to prevent any excess energy from being sent back to the grid and potentially harming utility workers who may be working to restore power.
Overall, an on-grid solar backup solution can be an excellent option for your business if you are looking to reduce your reliance on the grid and lower your energy costs while still maintaining a connection to the utility grid.
