A hybrid solar system is a type of solar power setup that combines the features of both on-grid and off-grid systems. It uses solar panels to generate electricity and includes battery storage to store excess energy for later use. Unlike a traditional on-grid system, a hybrid system can operate even during power outages, thanks to its batteries. At the same time, it can be connected to the utility grid, allowing homeowners to draw electricity from the grid when needed or feed surplus energy back into it. This combination provides greater energy independence, reliability, and potential savings on electricity bills.
A hybrid solar system combines the best of both on-grid and off-grid solar technologies. It is designed to provide reliable electricity by using solar power, battery storage, and grid connectivity all in one system.
Here’s a step-by-step breakdown of how it works:
1. Solar Power Generation: Solar panels capture sunlight and convert it into direct current (DC) electricity. This DC electricity flows into a hybrid inverter , which converts it into alternating current (AC) for use in your home or business.
2. Powering Your Home: The system prioritizes using solar energy to run appliances and devices in real-time, reducing your dependence on the grid.
3. Battery Charging:Any extra solar energy that is not used immediately is stored in batteries for later use. These batteries come in handy during the night or when sunlight is low, such as on cloudy days.
4. Using Stored Energy: When solar production drops (e.g., at night), the system draws power from the batteries instead of the grid, which helps reduce electricity costs.
5. Grid Interaction: If both solar and battery power are insufficient (like during extended cloudy days or very high power usage), the system will automatically switch to draw electricity from the grid . Conversely, if the batteries are fully charged and there’s still surplus solar energy, it can be sent back to the grid (if net metering is enabled), which may earn credits on your electricity bill.
6. Seamless Backup During Outages: One of the key advantages of a hybrid system is backup power during grid failures. The inverter automatically switches to battery power when it detects an outage, ensuring your essential appliances keep running.
7. Smart Energy Management: Most modern hybrid systems come with monitoring apps or software , allowing users to track energy production, consumption, and storage in real-time. Smart inverters can be programmed to optimize usage based on time-of-day pricing or forecasted sunlight.

1. Photovoltaic-Thermal (PVT) Hybrid Panels
2. Hybrid PV Panels with Integrated Battery Storage
3. AC Solar Panels (Microinverter-based Hybrid Panels)
Function : Have a built-in microinverter that converts DC to AC on the panel itself.
How it works : Each panel works independently and outputs AC directly.
Best for : Shaded roofs or systems where flexibility and modularity are needed.
4. Concentrated PV-T (CPVT) Panels
5. Hybrid Panels with Smart Energy Management
1. Power Backup During Outages : Hybrid systems include batteries, so you still have electricity even during grid failures. Great for : Areas with frequent power cuts.
2. Efficient Use of Solar Power : Extra solar power is stored in batteries instead of being wasted or exported at low rates. Maximizes self-consumption and reduces reliance on the grid.
3. Lower Electricity Bills: Use stored solar energy during peak hours (when electricity is most expensive).Reduces dependence on grid electricity and slashes monthly bills.
4. Battery Storage Flexibility: Sore energy for nighttime use or emergencies. Option to expand battery capacity as your energy needs grow.
5. Grid Support & Net Metering: You can still connect to the grid and sell excess power. Take advantage of government subsidies and net metering policies in Delhi NCR.
6. Environmentally Friendly: Uses clean solar energy and reduces carbon footprint. Supports India’s move toward renewable energy and sustainable living.
7. Increases Property Value: Homes with advanced solar systems (especially with storage) are more attractive to buyers.
8. Smart Energy Management : Modern hybrid inverters can optimize usage, monitor performance, and alert you to issues. Helps manage energy more efficiently via mobile apps or cloud platforms.
1. Site Inspection & System Design
The installation process begins with a thorough site inspection to assess the rooftop area, direction, shading, and structural strength. This helps determine the ideal system size and layout based on the user’s energy consumption. After the assessment, the installer designs a custom hybrid solar system that includes solar panels, a hybrid inverter, batteries, and mounting structures. At this stage, a detailed quotation is provided, and documents are collected for applying government subsidies and net metering.
2. Approvals & Mounting Structure Installation
Once the design is approved, the installer submits necessary applications to the local DISCOM (electricity department) for grid connectivity and subsidy approval. With approvals underway, the physical installation begins by mounting the supporting structure on the rooftop. These structures are usually made of aluminum or galvanized iron and are installed at the correct tilt angle to capture maximum sunlight throughout the year.
3. Solar Panel, Inverter & Battery Setup
After the mounting structure is in place, the solar panels are installed and wired together. The panels are connected to the hybrid inverter, which manages both solar energy generation and battery storage. The battery bank is connected to store excess solar power for use during nighttime or power outages. The inverter is also connected to the main electrical panel of the house, allowing seamless switching between solar, battery, and grid power sources.
4. System Testing, Monitoring & Handover
The final step involves connecting the system to the grid and installing a bidirectional net meter. The system is thoroughly tested to ensure proper voltage, current, and battery backup functionality. A mobile or web-based monitoring system is set up for real-time tracking of energy generation and usage. Once everything is working correctly, a final inspection is conducted (often by DISCOM officials), and the system is handed over to the user with all necessary documentation, user manuals, and warranty cards.
A Hybrid Solar System uses solar panels to generate electricity and stores it in batteries. It works both on-grid and off-grid, so when there’s a power cut or high demand, it supplies power from the battery. It includes solar panels, an inverter, and a LiFePO4 (Lithium Iron Phosphate) battery.
