What is stand alone solar?
Stand alone solar systems are designed for people who have properties that can’t be connected to the grid, or who prefer to be self-sustaining in regards to their energy supply and consumption.
To go completely off-grid, a stand-alone solar system requires four components:
- Solar panels
- Inverter
- Battery bank
- Battery charge controller
Solar panels collect energy from the sun, which generates DC energy. This energy is fed into a regulator, which controls the amount of charge. Deep cycle batteries are charged: the most common types used in stand alone solar systems are AGM (Absorbed Glass Mat), Gel and Flooded. 12 volt appliances can be run directly from these batteries or the current can be routed through an inverter, which will convert it to the 240V 50Hz AC electricity which is required for running standard home appliances. Unlike grid connect systems, with stand alone systems the inverter supplies energy to the premises overnight; energy which is otherwise stored in the energy bank.
