WEIGHING BENEFITS VS DISADVANTAGES FOR HYBRID SOLAR SYSTEMS INSTALLATIONS

A GREAT OPTION FOR THOSE WHO WANT TO DO THEIR PART FOR ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY

How much do the disadvantages discussed in other posts outweigh the benefits of a hybrid solar system? This article lets you learn about weighing "benefits" vs "disadvantages" for hybrid solar systems installations.

We've already discussed the cons that are very common when talking about these systems, with cutting-edge technological explanations and specifications overshadowing or nullifying the specific weight of any of these.

A hybrid solar system has significant benefits when weighing energy security and budgeting for replacing the LIFEPO4 battery and hybrid inverter every 10 to 15 years. By staying connected to the grid, your loads can get power even if your solar panels don't get sunlight during the day, getting power from both the grid and the battery bank.

You can also save money with net metering if this is a valid option with your utility company. In terms of profitability, a hybrid solar system allows you to lock in low electricity consumption rates for years to come, protecting you from future increases in electric bills that are estimated at 2 to 3 percent annually and allows you to manage the time of use or energy consumption versus the rates imposed and changed at whim by the utilities, whether hourly, daily, weekly, or even seasonally. This way, you can get the maximum solar savings.

All of this money remains in your bank account (since you stop spending it in the future) and forms the most important part of the ROI calculation when investing in solar. The graph shows that the savings, or rather, better to call it "future investment", is the difference between what the accumulated electric bills would cost you over time when a solar plan is not executed (blue), and the fixed cost of the purchased solar system (in orange), which in many cases can even be financed in installments, and which is always paid off before the end of the system's useful life.

This type of investment offers savings from day one and even more so when there are local grants or rebates to promote this initiative.

Solar hybrid systems are becoming more popular as people look for ways to reduce their carbon footprint and increase the reliability of their electricity supply. A hybrid solar system is a great option for those who want to do their part for environmental sustainability.
