Indstrial-OFF GRID

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. What are the main advantages of an off-grid solar power plant?

Off-grid solar systems provide complete energy independence, reliable power in remote locations, protection from grid failures, and freedom from rising electricity tariffs.

2. How many hours of backup can an off-grid solar system provide?

Backup duration depends on battery capacity and load usage. Off-grid systems can be designed to provide anywhere from a few hours to full-day backup based on user requirements.

3. How is an off-grid solar system sized?

System sizing is done based on daily energy consumption, peak load demand, required backup hours, and available sunlight, ensuring balanced performance and reliability.

4. How does battery storage work in an off-grid system?

Excess solar energy generated during the day is stored in batteries and used during power outages, night hours or when sunlight is insufficient ensuring continuous power supply.

5. Can an off-grid solar system run heavy loads?

Yes. Off-grid systems can be designed to run heavy loads such as pumps, machinery, and appliances by selecting appropriate inverter capacity and battery storage.

6. How do I choose the right battery type for an off-grid solar system?

There are two types of Batteries.
* Lead Acid batteries
* Lithium Ferro phosphate (LFP) batteries
Battery selection depends on backup hours required, daily energy usage, and maintenance preference. Lead Acid batteries are economical, while Lithium (LFP) batteries offer longer life, higher efficiency, and low maintenance.

7. Why are LFP (Lithium Ferro Phosphate) batteries preferred for off-grid solar systems?

LFP batteries offer
*Minimal maintenance
*Higher efficiency
*Longer lifespan
*Faster charging
compared to conventional batteries, making them ideal for reliable off-grid power.

8. Are LFP batteries safe for continuous off-grid solar operation?

Yes. LFP batteries are one of the safest battery technologies, with high thermal stability, no risk of overheating, and built-in protection systems, making them ideal for continuous off-grid use.

9. How long does it take to recover the investment (ROI)?

ROI depends on system size and battery configuration, but off-grid systems focus more on power availability and independence rather than faster financial returns..

10. When should I choose off-grid instead of on-grid or hybrid?

Off-grid solar is the best choice when grid power is unavailable, highly unreliable, or when complete energy independence is the primary requirement. Off grid solar systems are economical when compared to Hybrid solar system
