Hybrid Solar Designed for Backup, Control & Long-Term Reliability
FSP designs hybrid solar systems around your actual load, backup requirement, battery capacity, inverter capacity, surge load, roof condition, safety, and future expansion — not a fixed package.
What It Is
What Is a Hybrid Solar System?
A hybrid system combines solar panels, a hybrid inverter, a battery, grid connection, and selected backup loads. It uses solar by day, charges the battery, supports essential loads during outages, and works with the grid — all managed automatically.
Who Needs It
Who Hybrid Solar Is Built For
Load-Shedding Homes
Need: Uninterrupted essentials.
Backup: Lights, fans, fridge, router.
Duplex Houses
Need: Whole-home comfort.
Backup: Multi-floor essential loads.
Small Offices
Need: Work continuity.
Backup: Computers, lights, network.
Clinics
Need: Critical reliability.
Backup: Medical & refrigeration loads.
Shops & Restaurants
Need: No lost business.
Backup: Lighting, refrigeration, POS.
Schools & Buildings
Need: Essential-load continuity.
Backup: Selected critical circuits.
Design Factors
What FSP Checks Before Sizing
A correct hybrid design depends on all of these — we do not skip any of them.
- Full load list
- Essential (backup) load
- Backup hour requirement
- Inverter capacity
- Battery capacity
- Solar panel capacity
- Battery charging loss
- Inverter loss
- Cloudy-weather safety margin
- Surge load (fridge, motor, pump, AC, compressor)
- Roof space
- Inverter & battery location
- Cable route
- Earthing & protection
- Future load growth
Load Priority
Not Every Load Belongs on Backup
Hybrid solar performs better when essential loads are separated and prioritized. Connecting everything to backup wastes battery and money.
Essential Loads (Backup)
- Lights
- Fans
- Router / internet
- TV
- Refrigerator
- Selected sockets
- Security system
Heavy Loads (Careful Design)
- Air conditioner
- Water pump
- Motor
- Heater
- High-power kitchen equipment
Battery Sizing
How Backup Duration Is Estimated
Here is a worked example showing how backup duration is estimated. Your actual figures come from your load list, battery type, and site survey — these are estimates, not promises.
| Input | Example value |
|---|---|
| Selected backup load | ≈ 600 W (example) |
| Required backup hours | ≈ 4 hours |
| Inverter size | ≈ 3 kVA |
| Battery capacity | ≈ 5 kWh (lithium) |
| Battery type | Lithium |
| Usable capacity | ≈ 4.5 kWh (after depth-of-discharge) |
| Estimated backup duration | ≈ 4–5 hours (estimate) |
| Safety margin | ≈ 20% (cloudy-day reserve) |
Hybrid vs On-grid
Which System Fits Your Goal?
Hybrid Solar
- Includes battery
- Supports backup loads
- Higher cost than on-grid
- Needs proper load priority
- Best when backup is important
On-grid Solar
- No battery by default
- Best for bill reduction
- No backup during grid failure
- Suitable for daytime load & net metering
