Hi,
I am new to all this excuse my ignorance. I am trying to have a setup with the following requirement:
- We have frequent power failures schedules here of combined 4-6 hours / day (1 hour fixed each time). So on-grid is not good enough.
I need the backup from batteries and I want the solar to continue producing power at day-time. Hybrid is the solution but it's too expensive in my country.
- I will be exporting to the electric provider as they exchange the units used from grid vs exported.
1. I want to do a 12kw solar setup but can only afford 6kw Hybrid solar inverters. I can afford a 12kw on-grid solar inverter + a smaller 5-7kw off-grid solar inverter (for when grid power is out) - they are still way cheaper than buying the hybrid. Heck, even 12kw of off-grid+on-grid would be cheaper than hybrid.
Is there any way to make that work?
2. About 5-7kw of the house load on this setup. But I want to keep rest of load separate so it doesn't ever overload the inverter. That's possible right?
Thank you for the suggestions and replies.
