Grid Connect systems
produce power for households that are already connected
to the electricity grid.
Energy is collected by photovoltaic
panels
which is converted by a grid connect inverter
for immediate use by the household, with any unused
power exported to the electricity grid.
A meter installed by your power company monitors how
much power you use and how much you export, crediting
your account for that which you export.
A Grid Connect system can be designed
to reduce your power bills and cut your energy costs.

Remote or Stand Alone systems
provide power to a household that is not connected
to the electricity grid.
Energy is collected by photovoltaic panels
and stored in batteries. An inverter
converts this energy into 240 Volt AC power
which is used by the appliances and lighting
in the household as normally. Energy efficient appliances
and lights are recommended where possible, and each
system is designed around the energy requirements of
a particular household. Stand Alone systems may be roof
based or ground based on a frame. |
