4 FAQs about Equipment required for solar panel power generation

What equipment do I need to go solar?

You need solar panels, inverters, racking equipment, and performance monitoring equipment to go solar. You also might want an energy storage system (aka solar battery), especially if you live in an area that doesn't have net metering.

Do you need a storage battery for a solar system?

Storage batteries also allow a PV system to operate when the electric grid is not available. If you want your solar panels to operate during a power outage, you need to pair them with a solar battery. Hybrid solar systems and off-grid systems both use solar energy storage.

What is a solar panel system?

Solar panel systems are often referred to as PV, or photovoltaic, solar power systems. The home installation of a high-quality solar power system can reduce or eliminate dependence on the utility power grid that supplies electricity to light, heat, cool, and operate your home.

Do you need a solar battery for a power outage?

If you want your solar panels to operate during a power outage, you need to pair them with a solar battery. Hybrid solar systems and off-grid systems both use solar energy storage. However, off-grid systems require more batteries because they don't have the grid to fall back on like hybrid systems do.
