An on-grid solar system, also known as a grid-tied solar system, is a type of solar power setup that is connected directly to the local electricity grid. This system allows homeowners and businesses to generate their own solar energy while still being connected to the grid for backup power when needed. Excess electricity produced by the solar panels can be fed back into the grid, earning the owner credits or payments through net metering. On-grid solar systems are cost-effective because they don't require battery storage, and they maximize the use of the local power grid for energy supply. However, they do not provide power during grid outages unless a battery backup is installed. This system is ideal for areas with stable and reliable grid access.
