How Are Hybrid Systems Integrated with Solar or Battery Power?
As we reach the end of June and the summer heat ramps up, many homeowners start thinking about ways to save on energy costs. One popular option is installing a hybrid power system that combines solar panels and/or batteries. But how do you choose?
Solar panels convert sunlight into electricity to power your home during the daytime. Batteries store excess energy produced by solar panels or from the grid to use later. Combining both solar and battery storage creates a resilient hybrid system that maximizes solar energy use while providing backup power when needed.
There are a few ways to set up a solar-battery hybrid system: solar panels charging battery bank, solar supplying home with grid charging batteries, or a grid-tied solar system with batteries. The best option depends on your goals, energy usage and budget. We can assess your needs and help design the ideal system to reduce your dependence on the grid.
