Solar rooftops: Everything you need to know before installing solar rooftop system

Millions of homes and commercial buildings have started to adapt to solar rooftops. This is major because of the increasingly changing consumption of power and lack of resources. Residential solar can help generate electric power converted from solar energy and run most of your devices, including AC/other appliances.

Although residential rooftops may be used to install solar rooftops, you need to consider a couple of factors before starting the process.

Types of Residential Solar Systems

1. On-grid solar systems

Topping the list is the On-grid systems that are generally integrated with the main supply of the building. It allows power to be used directly when one cannot supply power. Thus, a well-planned rooftop system can efficiently deliver power without using grid supply, saving expenses otherwise incurred using energy from the grid. This system can earn profits as any excess power generated can be fed to the grid for which DISCOMs pay compensation using ‘net metering.’

2. Off-grid Solar Systems

The second on the list is the off-grid solar system, which has the rooftop solar system not linked to the primary grid. This system runs on its battery power. The power generated from the rooftop solar system charges the battery, which is then used to power various applications. This system is advantageous when the supply is erratic.

3. Hybrid Solar systems

The third one on the list is the hybrid solar system, which is, of course, self-explanatory. It includes both on-grid and off-grid systems working in tandem. The advantage here is once the battery is ultimately charged; the excess power generated may be used to feed the grid, leading to additional revenues.
