A photovoltaic system converts the Sun''s radiation, in the form of light, into usable electricity. It comprises the solar array and the balance of system components. PV systems can be categorized by various aspects, such as, grid-connected vs. stand alone systems, building-integrated vs. rack-mounted systems, residential vs. utility systems, distributed vs. centralized systems, rooftop vs. ground-mount…
Solar backup systems come in a variety of sizes, from 1 kW and 2 kW solar systems to 8 kW or 10 kW solar systems and even 30 kW and 50 kW solar systems. Choosing the right size for your system ensures that your daily energy needs are covered in full while not incurring exorbitant maintenance costs.
