There are three basic types of solar power systems: grid-tie, off-grid, and backup power systems. Here’s a quick summary of the differences between them:
Off-grid solar is designed to bring power to remote locations where there is no grid access.
Off-grid systems require a battery bank to store the energy your panels produce. They are often paired with a generator to provide backup during long stretches without sunlight.
A backup power system connects to the grid, but also includes batteries. Backup power systems (also called “hybrid systems” or "energy storage systems") provide backup power in case the grid goes down.
TYPES OF SOLAR SYSTEMS
GRID-TIED SOLAR SYSTEMS
A grid-tied solar system is, as the name suggests, a solar energy system that is connected to the main electricity grid. They can operate without being connected to a solar battery, making them the most simple, cost-effective, and popular type of solar system.
OFF-GRID SOLAR SYSTEMS
The term off-grid refers to the situation where solar photovoltaic system is not connected to the utility grid or national grid. This approach is extremely useful in some areas in Kenya where there is little access of electricity is available or there is no national electricity grid at all.
BACKUP SOLAR SYSTEM
A power backup system is a set-up to provide uninterrupted power supply for your household during a blackout from a stored energy source
