Off Grid Solar Rooftop System

What is an Off Grid Solar Rooftop System?

A solar power system which is not dependent on the local utility grid for its operations is known as Off-Grid Solar System. It relies on the electricity that it produces and stores rather than relying on the utility grid for power. The Off-Grid Solar System mainly comprises solar panels, an inverter and batteries wherein the inverter converts the DC (Direct Current) from the batteries and Solar Panels into AC (Alternating Current) which is used by appliances.

How Does it Work?

An Off-grid Solar System – also known as Stand-alone power system (SAPS) – works by producing electricity from captured solar energy through solar panels. The energy is generated in the form of DC(Direct Current) which is used to charge a solar battery through a charger controller. This DC (Direct Current) is converted into AC (Alternating Current) using an inverter which is further used to power your appliances.

Advantages of an Off-Grid Solar Rooftop System

Perfect Solar Solutions is one of the leading Solar companies in UP, India which can provide you with Off-Grid Solar Rooftop System service with following advantages:

Energy Independence

Off-Grid Solar System has zero dependency on the utility grid and produces its own electricity from the solar energy. This implies that users have full control over their power resource.

Environmental Sustainability

Unlike fossil fuels, solar energy is a more environmentally friendly and sustainable energy. Hence, it reduces the carbon footprint generated by burning fossil fuel in the environment.

Cost Savings

There is a significant reduction in electricity bills leading to cost savings. Long-term cost savings are achievable by eliminating the costs that are dependent on the grid.

Protection from Power Outages

Installing Off-Grid Solar System ensures protection from unpredictable power outages caused by sleet storms, freezing rain, or high winds. Since the Off-Grid Solar System functions independent of the utility grid these power outages do not interrupt the power supply.

Power Accessibility in Remote Areas

Off-Grid Solar System is a boon for remote areas or villages that are dependent on an unreliable utility grid for power supply or where there is No power grid available. An Off-Grid Solar System is capable of providing electricity in such cases thus, making life of the locale better in every sense possible.

Low Operational Costs

Once installed, an Off-Grid Solar System has a very low operational cost. Solar Panels last for more than two and a half decades and thus, have low maintenance cost which leads to low operational cost. The other costs include cleaning and inverter costs which are relatively lower than other fuels.

Components of an Off-Grid Solar Rooftop System

Solar Panels

One of the primary parts of the On-Grid Solar System is the Solar Panel. Their main function is to collect solar energy and convert it into electrical energy. They constitute more than 50% of the cost of a solar system.

Solar Inverters

The primary function of a Solar Inverter is to convert DC output collected from the Solar Panel into AC supply.

Batteries

A battery is a key element of an Off-Grid Solar System since it holds the extra amount of electricity generated by the solar panels in the daytime. This helps in generating electricity during the nighttime, when the solar panels are not functional.

Mounting Structures

A mounting structure also known as a panel stand, solar panel holding stand or solar stand supports and mount the Solar Panel and holds them in place on rooftops, building facades and even the ground. They are commonly made of materials like galvanized steel, iron, or aluminum that ensure durability. They can withstand various weather conditions and provide support that lasts long. Some of the major benefits of using robust Solar Panel Stands are: 1.Maximize sunlight exposure, 2.Protect the panel from rain, wind, and other weather elements, 3.Ensure proper installation

Solar Accessories

Solar Accessories consist of accessories or items that assist in the process of installation such as junction boxes, cabling, wires, mounting frameworks, etc.
