Net Metering in Rooftop Solar PV Systems
Net metering is the most popular topology in Grid tied Rooftop Photovoltaic (PV) applications . This video explains the principle of net metering and also explains the "net meter" bill issued by DISCOM
Working of Rooftop Solar Hybrid system
A Rooftop Hybrid Solar PV system is perhaps the most versatile and programmable configuration among the different available topologies in the Rooftop solar PV systems . In the case of a Hybrid Solar PV system, generally we will have three sources of power supply. 1. Solar power . 2. Utility grid power. 3. Battery bank. A hybrid system can optimise these three sources and deliver quality power to the load. In this video, we have tried to explain the 8 common topologies or configurations of the Hybrid solar PV system.
Rainwater Harvesting at Ajantha meadows Apartments
Rainwater is Pure, Abundant and Free. If the catchment is maintained clean , this water is potable quality water . In this Project, Rainwater falling on the roof is captured, conveyed and filtered and stored for direct use. Excess water is recharged into the ground.
Rainwater Harvesting at Kethana Eternal Blossom Apartments, Bangalore.
Water which falls on the rooftop is collected through a network of pipes, Filtered and stored in an underground storage sump. For an Average rainfall of 970 mm in Bangalore, With a catchment of 3200 SqM; the annual run off will be 3200 x 0.85 x 970 = 26,38,400 Litres or 2,638 Kilo Litres . The water can be used for all Purposes other than drinking. If used for drinking, the water must be subjected to another round of filtration like UV or boiling .
Rooftop Solar Power Configurations
Three Different configurations are possible for a Rooftop Solar setup namely Hybrid, On-grid and Off grid . All the three are installed in this Ashram near Bangalore
Rainwater Harvesting , Rooftop solar and composting at individual Home.
This is one of our projects where the rainwater from roof is collected and used and the rooftop solar panels generate electricity for the house . Other sustainable practices like composting is also incorporated.
Rooftop Solar Power : Grid Connected Coupled with Hybrid Solar Power System
22 Panels (7.04 KW) are connected to a conventional grid tied system and 9 panels (2.88 KW) are connected to a Hybrid inverter. The entire 31 Panels (9.92 KW) are interfaced with the power utility grid.
Rooftop Hybrid Solar Power System
A hybrid solar power system is a combination of Grid connected system and off grid system.
Three Phase Rooftop Hybrid Solar System.
Hybrid System is a combination of On and off grid systems .
