Hybrid Solar System – Best of Both Worlds: Solar + Battery + Grid
A Hybrid Solar System is a setup that uses three key parts together — solar panels, a battery bank, and a connection to the main electricity grid. The solar panels generate power, the battery stores extra energy, and the grid acts as a backup source when needed.
This system is different from a normal on-grid setup, which relies only on solar panels and the grid. It is also different from an off-grid system, which depends only on solar panels and batteries. The hybrid model brings the best of both worlds by using all three sources.
Because of this combination, a hybrid solar system offers flexibility, backup power during outages, and long-term savings. You get the reliability of the grid, the security of a battery during power cuts, and the cost benefits of using solar energy during the day.

Key Components of the System
Solar panels (PV modules)
to capture sunlight and generate DC electricity
Hybrid inverter
converts DC to AC, manages battery charging/discharging, synchronises with grid, and controls flow of electricity.
Battery bank / storage system
typically lithium-ion batteries that store excess solar energy for use during night or outages.
Grid connection + net meter
allows import from the grid when needed and export to the grid when surplus exists
Key Features & Benefits
Uninterrupted Power
Enjoy a steady power supply even during outages, as the battery backup keeps your home running without disruption.
Lower Electricity Bills
Use solar power during the day and send extra energy to the grid, helping you save more on monthly bills.
Energy Independence
Reduce your dependence on the main grid and take control of your home’s energy needs with your own solar setup.
Government Subsidy Benefits
Homeowners can receive up to ₹1.08 lakh in subsidies, making hybrid solar systems more affordable.
Future-Ready Setup
As you grow your load or want more independence, you can scale the battery or panel size
Enhanced Flexibility
The system intelligently decides whether to use solar, battery, or grid based on availability, demand and settings.
