Hybrid Solar System

A hybrid solar system typically refers to a setup that integrates solar photovoltaic (PV) panels with another source of electricity generation or energy storage system. The purpose of combining these technologies is to improve overall system efficiency, reliability, and cost-effectiveness. Here are some common types of hybrid solar systems:

  • This configuration combines solar panels with energy storage batteries (such as lithium-ion batteries).
  • During sunny periods, solar panels generate electricity that can be used immediately or stored in batteries for later use.
  • Battery storage allows for energy to be used during periods when solar generation is low (e.g., nighttime) or during power outages.
  • It can also enable self-consumption of solar energy, reducing reliance on the grid and potentially lowering electricity bills.
