Solar PV systems
Which solar system is right for you?
Every rooftop system uses the same basic parts. What changes is whether it keeps a battery, and whether it can send surplus power back to the grid.
Four questions
Start here.
Do you have power cuts that matter to you?
If not, on-grid gives the lowest cost and fastest payback. If yes, look at a hybrid system.
Do you already own a UPS and batteries?
A modular hybrid system can reuse them, joined to solar by Powergate’s AutoSwitch.
Is the grid unreliable or missing at your site?
An off-grid system works as a solar UPS and does not depend on the grid.
Building new and want everything in one box?
An integrated hybrid system combines net metering and battery backup in one inverter.
Side by side
Compare the systems.
| Feature | On-grid | Off-grid | Integrated hybrid | Modular hybrid |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Needs the grid to run | Yes | No | No | No |
| Batteries | No | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| Power during a power cut | No | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| Exports surplus (net metering) | Yes | No | Yes | Yes |
| Works with an existing UPS | No | No | No | Yes |
| Relative cost | Lowest | Higher | Higher | Medium |
| Best for | Homes and businesses with reliable grid supply that want the fastest payback. | Farmhouses, remote sites and buildings where the grid is unreliable or unavailable. | New homes and buildings that want lower bills and backup in one neat system. | Homes and offices that already own a UPS and want solar without replacing it. |
