Most countries of the world are turning to use renewable energy instead of traditional energy systems due to its environmental and financial benefits to all societies. One of the types:
“Off-Grid Photovoltaic System with Energy Storage”
An off-grid system is mostly used in places where there is no supply from the electric utility, it is suitable and ideal for supplying rural and remote areas with electricity, therefore this system requires storage solutions such as batteries to operate the loads and electrical devices at night. For many users, it has also become a as an option to be independent of the electricity network and to get rid of electricity bills permanently.
After the amazing development in recent years on the efficiency of solar energy systems, the high experience of Power Source Jordan Co., and applying the law exempting energy systems from customs duties and taxes, the prices of off-grid solar energy systems became accessible to the largest segment of the local community, where the cost of producing the watts became cheaper than traditional methods, such as electric generators that run on fossil fuel, the advancement included all parts of the system and became highly reliable and does not require periodic maintenance.
There are also some off-grid systems that do not need batteries, so they supply the electrical loads during the day only, which is reflected in the total price of the system.
Advantages of off-grid systems:
Independent of the power grid
Avoid Power Outages
Get rid of generators maintenance and high fuel cost
Keeping the Environment Clean and Green
The ability to increase the capacity of the system easily
Main system components:
Photovoltaic panels
Solar inverter
Charge controller
Storage system (battery bank)
Circuit breakers & Earthing system
AC & DC cables

Solar Panel:
The main component of the solar energy system and consists of a group of photovoltaic cells that convert continuous sunlight into a direct current
Solar Inverter:
It converts the DC current produced by the solar panels to AC, which is the suitable current for devices directly during the day or from batteries at night
Charge Controller:
An electronic device that regulates the electrical voltage generated from the solar panels before passing it to the batteries and from the batteries to the electrical load in order to maintain them and ensure that they are charged and discharged optimally.
