What is an on-grid solar system?
Solar power is produced by solar panels in an on-grid system (grid-tied system). When a family needs more power, excess energy is exported to the utility grid, and the grid is used to import the additional energy. The solar equipment is wired to transfer electricity between the solar equipment, the house, and the power grid, and the solar panels are installed at a location with appropriate sun exposure – often on the roof, though other places, such your backyard, can also work.
Pros Of On-Grid Solar Systems:
The benefits of grid-tied solar panel systems over other varieties of solar panel systems are listed below in brief:
As solar batteries are still somewhat pricey, this solution does not require a solar battery (like the Tesla Powerwall). Additionally, because they use less equipment, installers have less work to do, which results in cheaper labour expenses.
Net metering allows grid-tied systems to sell all excess power to the grid at the full retail rate, which results in significant cost savings. It is simple to reduce your monthly energy costs as a result.
The capacity to sell excess power to the grid combined with being the cheapest type of solar panel system leads to a speedy return on investment. In the majority of states, grid-tied systems have a payback period of three to nine years.
