Types of Commercial Solar Systems
On-Grid Solar System
An On-Grid Solar System is a solar setup connected to the utility grid, generating power during the day and sending excess energy back to the grid without needing batteries. It helps lower electricity bills through net metering.
Off-Grid Solar System
An off-grid commercial solar system provides independent power solutions for businesses, utilizing solar energy to operate without relying on the public grid. It offers a sustainable, reliable energy source, ideal for remote locations or areas prone to frequent power outages, ensuring uninterrupted operations while reducing electricity costs and carbon footprint.
Hybrid Solar System
A Hybrid Commercial Solar System combines solar power with traditional energy sources and battery storage, ensuring uninterrupted power supply. It maximizes energy savings by utilizing solar energy during the day and stored power during outages or peak times, making it ideal for businesses seeking energy efficiency and reliability.
