The prospect of harnessing clean energy and saving, or even making money can be exciting for many solar energy consumers. However, with so many different types of solar power systems out there, it can be difficult to know where to start. As with any major purchase, it pays to do your homework before making a financial commitment. With such a huge array of installers and solar products available on the market, it is essential that you find out exactly what you are getting into, before you make a final decision.
Grid connect solar In Australia, most modern solar power systems are grid connect. A grid connected system is linked to the mains electricity grid and doesn’t require the use of batteries. Any excess power created is fed back into the grid.
Stand-alone or off-grid solar systems As the name suggests, a stand-alone or off-grid solar system is not connected to the electricity grid. Commonly used in remote areas where mains power isn’t available, a stand-alone solar power system operates independently of the grid and requires backup batteries to store power.
Hybrid solar systems ‘Hybrid’ can refer to a power system that is driven by two or more renewable energy sources, often wind and solar power. For the Australian market however, the term ‘hybrid solar system’ is generally used to describe an exclusively solar powered system that is connected to the mains grid, but also has a battery backup facility to store excess power.
Portable solar power systems There are portable solar systems available for a wide range of applications including farming, fishing and camping. Designed with transportability in mind, portable solar panels are typically lightweight and robust and can be set up quickly to provide power in situations where mains electricity is unavailable or difficult to access.
