Off-grid Solar Power Plant

Off-Grid tied or Stand-alone PV systems are also called autonomous PV systems which are independent Photovoltaic systems. They are normally used in remote or isolated places where the electric supply from the power-grid is unavailable or not available at a reasonable cost. They are suitable for users with limited power need.

Stand-alone photovoltaic (PV) system is one of the most important applications in solar power generation, and has high practical value in the areas which is uncovered by power grid, such as remote area, desert and border outpost. This provides an excellent opportunity to apply a standalone renewable generation system.

Off-grid connected solar is a solar electricity system with battery backup. During the day the sun shines and charges the batteries as well as supplies power to your home. During the evening or on rainy days when the sun isn&t shining you use the power stored in the batteries. Your house is not connected to the national grid hence the name: off-grid.

Most of the time it is more cost efficient to connect to the grid and offset your electricity consumption with a grid-connect solar PV system than to go off-grid. However if you are building a new house or holiday home in a remote location Offconnected to the grid.

Components of off-grid solar PV system :

Energy Conversion (i.e. PV module).

Energy Inversion & Conversion (i.e. Charge Controller and Inverter).

Energy Storage (i.e. Battery Bank).

Uses:

Small Consumers.

Home Lights

No Grid Areas

Standalone
