Grid tie systems are the most common configuration for PV installations. A grid tie solar kit provides you with all the necessary components to build your own solar system for your home and stop paying electric bills.
A1 SolarStore engineers make sure that all the components in the system that we offer are sized together correctly. We have a wide range of grid tie solar kits for sale. Contact our managers for more information about prices, warranties and shipping options.
The main feature of a grid-tie solar kit is its ability to interact with the electrical grid. When the solar panels generate more electricity than what is being consumed on-site, the excess energy is fed back into the grid. This process is known as "net metering" or "feed-in tariff," depending on the specific policies in your region. The excess energy is typically credited or compensated by the utility company, effectively reducing your energy bills.
Grid-tie solar kits are an attractive option for homeowners or businesses looking to offset their electricity costs, reduce their carbon footprint, and take advantage of financial incentives for renewable energy. It allows you to generate clean energy while still being connected to the grid, providing a reliable power supply during times when solar production is insufficient. Additionally, it enables you to contribute to the overall energy mix and reduce reliance on fossil fuel-based power sources.
Here are the key components typically found in a complete grid-tie solar kit:
Grid-tie solar kits are relatively inexpensive when compared to off-grid and hybrid kits. The reason is that they don’t have energy storage. Grid-connected systems provide a great return on investments and pay off 2-3 times during their lifetime.
The grid tie solar kit price is going to depend primarily on the size of your future system and the panels that you’ll choose. The cheapest PV modules come from Chinese brands Trina Solar, Jinko Solar, JA Solar. American and Canadian manufacturers, like Silfab, Mission Solar and Canadian Solar, are a middle-of-the-road choice in terms of cost. The most expensive panels come from brands like Sunpower, LG, Panasonic, REC, and Solaria. Their panels are expensive, but the quality is unsurpassed.
