Get StartedThe utility grid refers to the network of power lines and transformers that deliver electricity to homes and businesses in your area. When your solar system produces more electricity than you need, the excess energy flows back into the utility grid. How Does an On-Grid Solar System Work?
A grid-connected solar system, also known as an on-grid or grid-tied solar system, is a photovoltaic (PV) system that is directly connected to the public utility grid. This system generates electricity from solar panels and feeds it into the grid.
Learn about grid-connected and off-grid PV system configurations and the basic components involved in each kind. Solar photovoltaic (PV) power generation is the process of converting energy from the sun into electricity using solar panels. Solar panels, also called PV panels, are combined into arrays in a PV system.
A grid-tied solar system operates by plugging into the main electricity grid and the solar array concurrently, thereby allowing the consumer to access both solar and grid power. On the one hand, given the absence of energy storage equipment, any power that is generated via solar panels and does not find immediate usage gets fed into the grid.
A grid-tied solar system and an off-grid solar power system for homes differ primarily in their connection to the utility power grid and how they handle excess power generation. A grid-tied solar system is connected to the local utility grid. This system comprises solar panels, an energy meter, and one or multiple inverters.
Solar photovoltaic (PV) power generation is the process of converting energy from the sun into electricity using solar panels. Solar panels, also called PV panels, are combined into arrays in a PV system. PV systems can also be installed in grid-connected or off-grid (stand-alone) configurations.
