Once a client indicates they would like to have solar power, we do a site visit whereby we conduct a detailed survey,” said Jesse. The company uses equipment to determine daily power consumption patterns and usage for all loads, and discusses with the clients about their preferences. Such data is then analyzed and used in the design process. They also select the right designing software based on the customer’s power consumption needs.
Every solar system is unique, as such it is crucial to understand your consumption profile so as to determine the viability of solar PV for your home or business or institution. The consumption profile will help in designing a suitable solar system for you. If the solar system is off-grid or is expected to operate during blackouts (grid outage), calculation of the amount of power to be used by each device – termed as load analysis (consumption profile) – is the first step towards the off-grid system design.
