15KW Hybrid Solar storage system solution

Product: 15KW Hybrid Solar storage system solution

Product summary

Hybrid solar systems generate power in the same way as a common grid-tie solar system but use special hybrid inverters and batteries to store energy for later use.

This ability to store energy enables most hybrid systems to also operate as a backup power supply during a blackout, similar to a UPS system.

Traditionally the term hybrid referred to two generation sources such as wind and solar but in the solar world the term 'hybrid' refers to a combination of solar and energy storage which is also connected to the electricity grid.

So commercial and civil use together is the core advantage of this storage system.

Why store solar energy in batteries? 

 Many governments and network operators have reduced the solar feed-in tariff or FiT (money or credit received for feeding solar energy to the grid). This means traditional grid-feed solar systems have become less attractive as most people are working during the day and not home to use the solar energy as it is generated, thus the energy is fed into the grid for very little return.

 A Energy Storage System stores your excess solar energy and can also provide back-up power during a blackout. This is perfect for home owners although for the majority of businesses which operate during the daylight hours, a common grid-feed solar system is still the most economical choice.

 Hybrid solar systems enable you to store solar energy and use it when you're home during the evening when the cost of electricity is typically at the peak rate.

 The ability to store and use your solar energy when desired is referred to as self-use or self-consumption. It works in the same way as an off-grid power system but the battery capacity required is far less, usually just enough to cover peak consumption (8 hours or less) as opposed to 3-5 days with a typical off-grid system.

Hybrid System Advantages:

1. Allows you to store excess solar or low cost (off-peak) electricity.

2. Allows use of stored solar energy during peak evening times (known as self-use or load-shifting)

3. Most hybrid inverters have backup power capability.

4. Reduces power consumption from the grid (reduced demand)

5. Enables advanced energy management (ie. peak shaving)
