Hybrid Solar Systems

Hybrid solar systems combine the best from grid-tied and off-grid solar systems. It can either be described as off-grid solar with utility backup power, or grid-tied solar with extra battery storage.

System Components:

PV panels
Charge Controller
Battery Bank
DC Disconnect (additional)
Battery-Based Grid-Tie Inverter
Power Meter

How Does the Hybrid system Work?

Hybrid solar systems utilize battery-based grid-tie inverters. These devices combined can draw electrical power to and from battery banks, as well as synchronize with the utility grid. They are able to control and balance the available sources of energy:

If the power generated by a solar array is insufficient to supply daytime loads as well as charge your batteries, the system can recharge your batteries from the grid when a lower off-peak electricity rate is available.
When your electricity usage goes above a certain level, electricity companies may charge you at a higher rate for this increased level of demand. Hybrid systems can provide ‘peak lopping’ where some stored power can be drawn from the batteries to help balance the power usage.
‘Grid support’ can also be provided by your hybrid system if your grid connection does not have the capacity to supply a load. The hybrid system could supply the extra power. And this may allow you to avoid a costly mains upgrade to your property.

TS Experience in Hybrid Technologies

Installation of a Hybrid Solar System requires detailed designing & engineering so as to control and balance the available sources of energy by synchronizing with the various equipments and the utility grid.

With its vast treasure of experience, expertise and technologies TS has successfully implemented prestigious projects with Hybrid Solar Systems.
