Grid Tied
The grid-tied system connects your building to both the main electricity grid and a solar array, so power from either or both can be used. Power generated by the solar panels that is not used immediately is automatically fed into the main grid saving you money. When energy generation from the panels is insufficient to match energy usage, the system automatically draws power from the main grid to make up the shortfall.
Grid tied systems can also include energy storage (batteries) as well as a generator in some cases. This means you can dynamically switch between energy sources depending on price, energy production, and energy usage.
Advantages of a grid-tied solar system
- Cost-effective installation
- Flexible, reliable power
- Cheaper electricity
Off-Grid
Off-grid systems are not linked to the main electricity grid. Instead, they operate as a closed system, making them ideal for areas that do not have grid access. To ensure reliable access to power, off-grid systems will include a battery system and a backup generator.
Advantages of an off-grid solar system
- Power independance
- Renewable green energy
- No monthly bills
- No power outages
