ENGINEERING SCENARIO
Solar shiftingSelf-consumptionHybrid PVIslanding
Solar + Storage Deployment
A PV-plus-battery scenario that shifts midday solar to evening use, lifts self-consumption, and firms variable generation for grid-connected and hybrid sites.
01Project Background
Solar + Storage
Variable PV needs storage to deliver firm, usable power. This scenario shows how a hybrid PCS and battery are specified alongside an array.
This is a generic engineering deployment scenario used to illustrate system design — it is not a specific customer installation.
02Customer Challenge
Site challenge
A typical solar + storage site faces:
- PV output fluctuates with clouds, causing ramp and voltage issues.
- Surplus midday solar is exported at low value without storage.
- Sites want evening self-consumption instead of grid draw.
- Hybrid sites need stable frequency and seamless islanding.
03Solution Overview
Solution approach
A hybrid PCS aggregates the PV array and the battery, charging from solar and discharging to cover load and export windows as needed.
04System Architecture
Typical Solar + Storage topology
A hybrid PCS aggregates PV and battery, charges from solar, and feeds stable power to loads and the grid — with seamless islanding when configured.

09FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Can it island from the grid?
Yes. Hybrid configurations island seamlessly and resynchronize automatically when configured.
Does it work with wind?
Yes. A hybrid PCS aggregates PV and wind into one battery bank.
How is sizing done?
On generation profile, load, and the firm-power requirement of the project.
