The larger your energy storage, the more you’ll store, and the longer you can draw down on your batteries without needing energy from the grid. It’s also important to decide on your total energy storage requirements when considering a hybrid solar power system. The higher your power requirements, the higher your solar capacity should be. ZEN Energy hybrid and backup solar power systems range from 3.70kW to 6.66kW, which covers the full range of residential needs. Generally speaking, solar capacity is measured in kilowatts (kWs), which represent how much power the solar system can generate at once. The solar capacity required for your home on a hybrid and backup system depends on your electricity needs. Hybrid and backup solar power systems still retain a connection to the main power grid, so if both stored energy and generated energy isn’t enough, your home can seamlessly switch to utility power. When faced with a blackout or other power failure, the built-in smart hybrid power inverter and energy redirection systems can target critical appliances like the fridge, freezer and lighting to keep them running. This ensures you can enjoy the power of the sun even at night. When the sun isn’t shining or when power demand increases, the smart hybrid power system can release the energy from the batteries. If your power generation is greater than your current power needs, the power is instead sent to charge the batteries - the ‘backup’ side of the hybrid and backup solar power system. This energy is then converted by the solar hybrid inverter, sending the power to appliances, lights and other electrical items in your home. Once installed, a hybrid and backup solar power system generates electricity from your home, powering your lights, appliances, heaters and more with clean, green energy drawn from solar power generated by photovoltaic panels on the roof.
