On-Grid system can be understood more easily from an example : NET UNIT = ( UNIT CONSUMED FROM ENERGY COMPANY - SOLAR UNIT) The net meter gives the net unit consumed. The Grid tie inverter is connected to our mains through a solar meter which will just calculate the solar unit generated, Than the the connections are made with the NET METER, which calculate the units consumed from the electrical company and also have the data about the solar unit generated. In On-Grid system solar panels are placed on the rooftop ,The electricity generated by the solar panel is direct current and the electricity we use in our houses is alternate current so to convert DC to AC we need an inverter to convert it.īut as the system have to connect with the grid so we require Grid Tie inverter which will convert the DC to AC in the same frequency as we are getting it from our energy provider company. so there is one more option to increase the efficiency of our system that is an ON-Grid system.

We know that if we store energy in battery's so it will result in 30% loss of energy while storing it.
