- 1- What is a commercial off-grid solar system and how does it work?
A commercial off-grid system operates completely independent of the utility grid. Solar panels generate electricity to run your site and charge a battery bank during the day; stored energy is used at night or during cloudy periods. The result is complete energy independence and immunity from grid outages.
- 2- What is a commercial hybrid solar system and how does it work?
A hybrid system combines solar + batteries with a grid connection. It can run on solar, charge batteries, and automatically switch to batteries during load-shedding, while still being able to import/export power as allowed—delivering both reliability and flexibility.
- 3- Off-grid vs. hybrid: which one is right for my business?
Choose off-grid if you need full autonomy or operate in remote/unstable grid areas. Choose hybrid if you want battery backup for load-shedding yet retain grid support. Paksolar engineers size and model both options to match your critical loads, runtime, and budget.
- 4- Will an off-grid or hybrid system eliminate downtime during load-shedding?
Yes. Off-grid systems operate independently, while hybrid systems automatically switch to battery power during outages—keeping operations continuous even with extended load-shedding.
- 5- What business benefits can I expect in Pakistan?
Lower total energy cost, avoidance of peak-hour charges, protection from tariff hikes, reduced diesel/gas generator use, and improved power quality. Many clients see strong ROI alongside sustainability gains.
- 6- Do these systems require approvals?
Hybrid systems typically require approvals with your electricity supplier/network.
Off-grid systems do not require external approvals—allowing faster, hassle-free deployment.
- 7- How do I estimate production and savings?
Production depends on site, sun hours, and system size. As a guideline: 10 kW ≈ 42 units/day (~1,260/month), 30 kW ≈ 120 units/day (~3,600/month), 75 kW ≈ 300 units/day (~9,000/month). Paksolar designs a custom system (e.g., 50 kW off-grid) and models your loads, battery autonomy, and tariff impact to quantify savings.
- 8- What components are included in a commercial off-grid/hybrid system?
Tier-1 solar modules, off-grid/hybrid inverters, battery bank with BMS, charge controllers, protections (DC/AC), mounting, cabling, monitoring hardware, and BOS—engineered to your load profile and autonomy requirements.
- 9- How much maintenance is required? Is O&M included?
Paksolar provides Operations & Maintenance (O&M) including technical support, monthly reporting, real-time monitoring, and panel cleaning (via contract). With proper care, systems deliver reliable performance for years.
- 10- Can I monitor performance in real time?
Yes. We provide monitoring so you can track generation, consumption, battery SOC, and system health—enabling proactive maintenance and optimal performance.
- 11- Does Paksolar offer financing?
Yes. Paksolar partners with leading Pakistani banks to offer flexible finance options for commercial clients—making solar adoption easier on cash flow.
- 12- What warranty and after-sales support do you provide?
We offer a robust 5-year system warranty and unmatched after-sales service. Every project has a dedicated Project Manager for smooth execution and responsive support.
