A Hybrid system includes battery backup, allowing you to store excess solar energy and use it during power cuts or at night. Unlike pure on-grid systems, you're not dependent solely on the grid.

You will need the following:

• Aadhaar card
• PAN card
• Bank passbook
• Recent KSEB bill
• Location of your house (Google Maps works)
• Phone number

Battery backup duration depends on your battery capacity and load. Typically, a well-sized system can provide 3-8 hours of backup for essential loads like lights, fans, and appliances.

Yes! Hybrid systems charge batteries first, then export excess power to the grid. You get both backup power and grid benefits, making it the most flexible solar solution.

Yes. You will need to upgrade the inverter to a hybrid model and add a battery pack. The cost is negotiable, especially if you're under warranty and trading in old equipment.

No, TOD (Time of Day) billing only affects the cost of electricity from the grid. It has no impact on solar production.

TOD (Time of Day) billing adjusts the price of electricity depending on when you use it. The base unit rate is ₹8.80:

• Daytime (6:00 AM – 6:00 PM): 75% → ₹6.60/unit
• Evening Peak (6:00 PM – 11:00 PM): 125% → ₹11.00/unit
• Night (11:00 PM – 6:00 AM): 100% → ₹8.80/unit

This structure encourages off-peak energy usage and helps reduce overall demand.
