Harness the Power of the Sun with Vamana's Solar Solutions
On-grid solar energy, also known as grid-tied solar energy, is a type of solar energy system that is connected to the electrical grid. It typically includes solar panels, an inverter, and a net meter.
The solar panels generate DC electricity which is then converted into AC electricity by the inverter. This AC electricity can then be used to power the electrical needs of the home or building, and any excess energy generated by the solar panels can be fed back into the grid.
When a grid-tied solar system generates more electricity than is needed, the excess electricity is sent back into the grid through the net meter, which measures the amount of electricity flowing in both directions. This excess electricity is then credited to the owner’s account, which can offset the cost of electricity used at times when the solar panels are not generating enough electricity to meet the demand.
On-grid solar energy systems are popular because they can help reduce electricity bills and carbon footprint. They are also convenient because the grid acts as a backup when the solar panels are not generating enough power.
