What is an Off-Grid Solar System?
An off-grid solar system (also called a stand-alone solar system) is a type of solar energy setup that works independently of the main electricity grid. It allows you to power your home entirely through solar energy, even in areas with no utility power.
This system is ideal for:
Remote villages or areas without electricity access
Homes facing frequent power cuts
People looking for complete energy independence
Main Components of an Off-Grid Solar System:
Solar Panels – Capture sunlight and convert it into DC (direct current) electricity.
Solar Inverter – Converts DC electricity into usable AC (alternating current) for household appliances.
Battery Bank – Stores excess electricity produced during the day so that it can be used at night or on cloudy days.
Charge Controller – Regulates the voltage and current going into the batteries, preventing overcharging or deep discharging.
Mounting Structures – Securely holds solar panels in place at the correct angle.
Solar Accessories – Includes cables, combiner box, MC4 connectors, conduit tray, lightning arrester, and more.
How Does an Off-Grid System Work?
The process of generating and using solar power with an off-grid system happens in the following steps:
Solar panels absorb sunlight and generate DC electricity.
The DC power flows into a combiner box, which organizes and directs it to the charge controller.
The charge controller sends this power to the battery bank to be stored for later use.
Once stored, electricity is passed to the solar inverter, which converts DC into AC power.
The converted AC electricity is used to power your household appliances like fans, lights, TV, refrigerator, etc.
| System Size | Daily Power Generation | Annual Power Generation |
|---|---|---|
| 1 kW | 4 units/day | 1,440 units/year |
| 2 kW | 8 units/day | 2,880 units/year |
| 3 kW | 12 units/day | 4,320 units/year |
| 4 kW | 16 units/day | 5,760 units/year |
| 5 kW | 20 units/day | 7,200 units/year |
| 10 kW | 40 units/day | 14,400 units/year |
What is the Cost of an Off-Grid Solar System?
Off-grid systems require solar panels, inverter, and batteries, and the battery bank is the most expensive component. The cost can vary between ₹85 to ₹100 per Watt Peak (Wp), depending on your location, battery capacity, and type of system.
For example:
If you need 1-hour backup, you’ll need a smaller battery, which is cheaper.
If you need 6 to 8 hours of power backup, you’ll need a high-capacity battery, which increases the total system cost.
| System Size | Urban Price (INR) | Rural Price (INR) |
|---|---|---|
| 1 kW | ₹80,000 | ₹82,000 |
| 3 kW | ₹2,05,000 | ₹2,09,000 |
| 5 kW | ₹3,50,000 | ₹3,55,000 |
ROI – Return on Investment
The Return on Investment (ROI) for off-grid systems typically ranges from 4 to 6 years, depending on:
Your current electricity bills
Daily electricity usage
System size and battery storage
Available sunlight in your area
Even though initial investment is higher due to batteries, in areas with no grid access or unreliable power, an off-grid solar system can pay off big in the long term through uninterrupted power and savings on diesel or inverter costs.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
An on-grid system connects to the electricity grid and sends excess power to the utility company. An off-grid system works independently and stores extra power in batteries for later use.
Most solar batteries last for 5 to 7 years depending on usage and maintenance. High-quality lithium batteries may last even longer.
Yes. Off-grid systems store excess power during the day in batteries so you can use it at night.
The battery backup is designed to last for at least 1-2 days without sun. In case of long cloudy weather, some users keep a generator as a backup.
Yes, periodic cleaning of panels and checking battery health ensures long-term performance.
