A hybrid system operates in both grid-tied and off-grid modes, incorporating solar panels, a hybrid inverter, and battery storage to ensure a continuous energy supply. The solar panels capture sunlight and convert it into electricity, while the battery storage saves any excess energy for future use.

The hybrid system functions in three distinct modes:

Grid-Tied Mode: This is the default setting for a hybrid inverter, functioning like a traditional grid-tied inverter. It converts the DC power from the solar panels into AC power for use in your home or business, with any surplus energy potentially being fed back into the grid.

Battery Backup Mode: In the event of a power outage or grid failure, the hybrid inverter switches to battery backup mode, utilizing the stored energy in the batteries to maintain power to your home or business.

Off-Grid Mode: In this mode, the hybrid inverter completely disconnects from the grid, relying solely on the energy generated by the solar panels and stored in the batteries. This is ideal for those in remote locations or those seeking complete independence from the grid.
