10kW On Grid Solar System, Sri Buddharakkitha Temple. Anuradhapura

10kW On GRID SOLAR SYSTEM

At IMEX Solar, we take pride in our commitment to providing sustainable energy solutions that help communities reduce their carbon footprint while saving money on electricity bills. We recently completed a project that we are particularly proud of – the installation of a 10kW on-grid solar system at Sri Buddharakkitha Temple in Anuradhapura, Sri Lanka.

The temple is an important place of worship for the Buddhist community and a educational training center for Buddhist monks. Its energy needs are substantial. With the help of our expert team of engineers and technicians, we were able to design and install a solar system that not only meets the temple’s energy demands but also helps it contribute to a cleaner, more sustainable environment.

Designing the Solar System

The first step in the project was to design a solar system that would meet the temple’s energy requirements. We started by conducting a thorough site assessment to determine the optimal location for the solar panels. We considered factors such as the orientation of the roof, the amount of shading, and the structural integrity of the building.

Based on our assessment, we recommended a 10kW on-grid solar system consisting of 22 Nos 460W JA solar panels, which we installed on the temple’s rooftop. The system is connected to the national grid, which means that any excess energy generated by the solar panels is fed back into the grid, reducing the temple’s electricity bill, and contributing to a greener grid.

Installing the Solar System

Once we had designed the solar system, we set about installing it. Our team of experienced technicians worked quickly and efficiently to install the solar panels, the inverter, and the monitoring system. We ensured that all the components were installed safely and securely and that they would function optimally for many years to come.

Commissioning and Testing the Solar System

After we had completed the installation, we commissioned and tested the solar system to ensure that it was functioning correctly. We used specialized testing equipment to check that the system was generating the expected amount of energy and that all the components were communicating with each other as they should.

We also trained the temple’s staff on how to use the monitoring system, which allows them to track the solar system’s performance in real-time. This helps them to identify any issues quickly and ensures that the system is operating efficiently.

Benefits of the On Grid Solar System

The solar system we installed at Sri Buddharakkitha Temple has several benefits. First and foremost, it helps the temple to reduce its carbon footprint by generating clean, renewable energy. This contributes to a more sustainable environment and helps to combat climate change.

Secondly, the solar system saves the temple money on electricity bills. By generating its own energy, the temple can reduce its reliance on the national grid and avoid paying for electricity from the utility company.

Finally, the on grid solar system sets an example for other temples and communities in Sri Lanka. By demonstrating the benefits of solar energy, the temple can inspire others to adopt renewable energy solutions and contribute to a greener future.

At IMEX Solar, we are committed to providing sustainable energy solutions that benefit communities and the environment. The installation of the 10kW on-grid solar system at Sri Buddharakkitha Temple in Anuradhapura is a testament to our expertise and commitment to excellence. We are proud to have helped the temple reduce its carbon footprint and save money on electricity bills, and we hope that our work inspires others to adopt renewable energy solutions.

What is an On Grid Solar System?

An on grid solar system, also known as a grid-tied solar system, is a solar power generation system that is connected to the main power grid. It is designed to work in tandem with the electrical grid, providing electricity to your home or business while also allowing you to export excess energy back to the grid. The system comprises of solar panels, an inverter, a meter, and a grid connection point.

Components of an On Grid Solar System

Solar Panels: The solar panels are the most critical component of the on-grid solar system. They are designed to capture sunlight and convert it into DC electricity.

Inverter: The On Grid Solar inverter converts the DC electricity generated by the solar panels into usable AC electricity for your home or place of business.

Meter: The meter measures the amount of electricity generated by the solar panels and the amount of electricity consumed by your home or business. It also measures the amount of electricity exported back to the grid.

Grid Connection Point: The grid connection point is where the on-grid solar system connects to the main power grid.

Advantages of On Grid Solar System

1. Cost-effective: An on grid solar system is a cost-effective solution for homeowners and businesses looking to reduce their energy bills. By generating your electricity, you can reduce your reliance on the grid and save money on your energy bills.
2. No batteries required: An on grid solar system does not require batteries to store excess energy, which can be costly and require maintenance.
3. Environmental-friendly: On grid solar systems generate clean energy, reducing your carbon footprint and helping the environment.
4. High-efficiency: An on grid solar system is highly efficient, with most systems having an efficiency rate of over 90%.

Disadvantages of On Grid Solar System

1. No backup power: An on grid solar system does not provide backup power in the event of a power outage. When the grid goes down, so does your solar system.
2. Grid dependency: An on grid solar system is reliant on the main power grid, and if the grid goes down, your solar system will not generate power.
3. Net metering policy: Net metering policies vary from state to state, and some states do not have a net metering policy in place. This can affect the amount of money you can save on your energy bills.

Conclusion

In conclusion, an on grid solar system is an excellent investment for homeowners and businesses looking to reduce their energy bills, generate clean energy, and reduce their carbon footprint. However, it is essential to understand the advantages and disadvantages of the system before deciding. We hope that this comprehensive guide has provided you with the necessary information to make an informed decision.
