RESIDENTIAL
A residential photovoltaic (PV) solar system is a solar power system that is installed on a residential property to generate electricity using sunlight. The system consists of solar panels, an inverter, and other components that work together to capture and convert sunlight into usable electricity for the home.
HYBRID SOLAR PV SYSTEMS
(SOLAR WITH BATTERY BACKUP)
These systems combine the features of grid-tied and off-grid systems. They are connected to the grid but also have battery backup to provide power during grid outages or when electricity demand is high. They can also be designed to prioritize the use of solar energy over grid electricity.
