When people consider using a solar system they often lean towards wanting to be completely off the grid. As much as there is a benefit to that, there is also a benefit to partly remaining on the grid.

Using a hybrid solar system is one of the best ways that you can control the power within your home. It allows you the ability to collect and use the power generated from the sun as well as the power that you have stored in the battery, with the backup of still being connected to the grid. 

How does a Hybrid Solar System work?

The hybrid solar system solutions offered by Ugotpower incorporate solar energy with electricity from the grid as backup. The hybrid inverter will take the collected solar energy from the solar panels, as direct current electricity, and convert it to alternating current electricity for use. When there is not enough solar energy generated from the sun, the hybrid system will then make use of the alternating current energy from the grid. After the energy is collected, being from either the solar panels or the grid, it will be stored in the battery for use.

Solar power will be used when the source is available, but when it is not, like during bad weather or at night, you will always be connected to power.

Ugotpower has two hybrid solar systems available in their range, being the Victron as well as the Deye or Sunsynk hybrid solar system solutions.

The Victron system contains 4kWp Solar Panels, 5KVA Hybrid Inverter as well as a 7kWh LiFePo4 Battery.

The Deye or Sunsynk system contains 4kWp Solar Panels, 5kW Hybrid Inverter, and a 7kWh LiFePo4 Battery.

Hybrid solar systems have revolutionised how we maximise the use of our electricity. Contact Ugotpower today to find out more about their hybrid solar system solutions in Gauteng.
