Connecting your solar panels or solar array to the local power grid enables you to engage in one of the most advantageous parts of generating your own electricity: Net Metering or Net Billing.
All solar power systems work on the same basic principles. Solar panels first convert solar energy or sunlight into DC power using what is known as the photovoltaic (PV) effect.
Hybrid solar panel systems are similar to a grid solar system but use batteries to store energy for later use. This ability to store energy enables most hybrid systems to also operate as a backup power supply during a blackout, similar to a UPS
