Hybrid Solar System

The best of both worlds — net-metering savings plus battery backup that keeps you running during load-shedding.

Hybrid solar

Savings and backup in one system

A hybrid system connects to the grid for net-metering savings and adds a battery so essential loads keep running when the grid goes down. For most Pakistani homes facing load-shedding, it’s the ideal balance.

  • Net-metering savings like an on-grid system
  • Battery backup during outages and load-shedding
  • Smart inverter prioritises solar, then battery, then grid
  • Scalable — add batteries as your needs grow

Why hybrid is popular in Pakistan

With frequent load-shedding, many households want both a lower bill and uninterrupted power. A hybrid system delivers both: you save through net metering by day and ride through outages on battery power.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is a hybrid solar system?

A solar system that combines grid connection (for net-metering savings) with battery storage (for backup power during outages).

Does a hybrid system work during load-shedding?

Yes — that’s its main advantage. Essential loads keep running on battery power when the grid is down.

Can I still get net metering with a hybrid system?

Yes. Hybrid systems can export surplus power for net-metering credit while retaining battery backup.
