Off-Grid Solar Solutions

In Daytime, Solar panels generate electricity which is not only used in the home for fulfilling energy needs but also used for charging the battery bank.

In Nighttime when solar panels are not generating electricity, the energy needs are fulfilled by energy from the battery bank.

This type of system makes you grid-independent for fulling your energy needs. This type of system is useful in areas where there are frequent electricity cut-offs and no grid connectivity.

Solar Solutions FAQ

What is an off-grid solar system?

An off-grid solar system is a standalone power system that generates and stores electricity using solar panels and batteries, without any connection to the utility grid.

Where are off-grid systems mostly used?

They are commonly used in remote areas, farmhouses, cabins, telecom towers, or places where utility power is unavailable, unreliable, or too costly to extend.

What are the main components of an off-grid solar system?

Solar Panels – capture sunlight and generate DC electricity.

Charge Controller (MPPT/PWM) – regulates charging of batteries.

Battery Bank – stores electricity for night or cloudy days.

Inverter – converts DC power to usable AC power.

Protection Devices & Wiring – fuses, breakers, surge protection.

How do I size an off-grid solar system?

Sizing depends on:

1.Daily energy consumption (kWh/day)

2.Peak load (Watt demand at one time)

3.Autonomy (backup days without sun)

4.Battery voltage & capacity

5.Solar hours available in the region

Can an off-grid system power my whole house?

Yes, if properly designed. However, most people prioritize essential loads (lights, fans, refrigerator, internet, water pump) instead of high-power loads (ACs, heaters, geysers) unless they install a very large system.

How many days of backup can I expect?

Normally 1–3 days of backup is common. This depends on battery bank size and local weather conditions.

• Solar panels – periodic cleaning.

• Batteries – monitoring, topping up (if lead-acid), ensuring

proper ventilation.

• Electronics – checking fuses, breakers, and connections.

Do off-grid systems require maintenance?

Yes, but it must be planned during the initial design. Battery banks and inverters should be chosen with expandability in mind.

Can I expand my off-grid system later?
