Off-Grid Solar with Battery
Stand-alone systems for places without a reliable grid. Power your essentials day & night.
Stand-alone systems for places without a reliable grid. Power your essentials day & night.
UTC Solar was founded in 2015 to accelerate mass solar adoption in India. We’ve helped 25,000+ homes go solar and support housing societies—saving customers up to 90% on monthly bills.
An off-grid (stand-alone) solar system is not connected to the grid. It operates like an independent island composed of:
#1. Solar panels — Mono/poly; both make DC. Avoid shading at installation.
#2. Solar inverter — Converts DC to AC for loads; the heart of the system.
#3. Batteries — Store excess daytime generation; supply power at night.
#4. Charge controller — Regulates charging, feeds the inverter, manages flow.
#5. Mounting structures — Hot-dip galvanized; designed for optimal tilt.
#6. Accessories — DC/AC cables & combiner boxes, MC4 connectors, earthing, conduit trays, lightning arrester.
| Capacity | Units / day (avg) | Units / year (avg) |
|---|---|---|
| 1 kW | ~4 | ~1440 |
| 2 kW | ~8 | ~2880 |
| 3 kW | ~12 | ~4320 |
| 4 kW | ~16 | ~5760 |
| 5 kW | ~20 | ~7200 |
| 10 kW | ~40 | ~14400 |
Higher capacity ⇒ more units. Choose to match your load & backup needs.
All-inclusive off-grid pricing (incl. batteries) typically ranges ₹85–100/Wp, mainly driven by backup hours:
Typical payback: ~6–7 years (batteries add cost). Still often more economical long-term than remote fossil-fuel grid power.
An off-grid system is ideal where grid power isn’t available. While payback takes ~6–7 years due to batteries, it’s justified against high fossil-fuel grid costs—and keeps your home sustainably powered.
