Basics The solar photovoltaic On-Grid systems produces, converts and transfers solar electricity to local grid in 230/400V environment. Typical characteristic of an On-Grid system is the connecting and integration with a local electric grid. On-Grid systems can be used as source of electricity for homes or factories. The user can Read more…
Basics A hybrid solar power system is combination of on grid solar system and off grid solar system. It has battery backup in it to store power and it also have the ability to feed surplus electricity into main grid. Hybrid system is fully automatic, programmable and custom engineer system. This allows a Read more…
Basics An off-grid system is not connected to the electricity grid and therefore requires battery storage. An off-grid solar system must be designed appropriately so that it will generate enough power throughout the year and have enough battery capacity to meet the home’s requirements, even in the depths of winter Read more…

In Leasing model, the contracting party may either make available space on his or her property for installation of a PV system without the right or obligation to consume the electricity generated and be remunerated at a certain leasing rate, or may enable installation of a PV system on the Read more…
A solar power purchase agreement (PPA) is a financial agreement where a developer arranges for the design, permitting, financing and installation of a solar energy system on a customer’s property at little to no cost. The developer sells the power generated to the host customer at a fixed rate that Read more…
Small amounts of electricity generated by residential PV systems can be easily fed into the local utility grid. Transformer capacity, appropriate grounding and system protection are obligatory, as otherwise the grid itself would be affected. The situation changes if the solar PV-generated electricity is beyond the limit of what an Read more…
The performance ratio is a measure of the quality of a PV plant that is independent of location and it therefore often described as a quality factor. The performance ratio (PR) is stated as percent and describes the relationship between the actual and theoretical energy outputs of the PV plant. Read more…
