Grid-tied solar systems: A good starting point for the budget conscious
For homeowners just starting their solar journey, grid-tied systems are a popular and cost-effective option. These systems consist of solar panels and a hybrid inverter, allowing you to harness the power of the sun during the day while relying on the grid when needed. While grid-tied systems don't initially include battery storage, you have the flexibility to add batteries later as your needs evolve.
One of the key advantages of grid-tied systems is the ability to sell excess power back to the grid, providing an additional revenue stream and further reducing your energy costs. With an easy-to-use app, you can monitor your power generation and usage in real-time, ensuring you get the most out of your system.
Hybrid solar systems: Flexible and reliable power
Hybrid solar systems are a popular choice for residential homes, offering a balance of flexibility, reliability, and energy independence. These systems combine solar panels, a hybrid inverter, and batteries to provide uninterrupted power even during grid outages. With intelligent energy management, hybrid systems prioritize solar energy first, followed by battery power, and then grid power if needed.
The benefits of hybrid systems go beyond just backup power. They allow you to store energy for night use, reduce your reliance on the grid, and sell excess power back to the grid. Through an intuitive app, you can monitor and manage your power usage, storage, and grid interaction, giving you complete control over your energy system. Hybrid systems are ideal for new builds, renovations, and even tiny homes or cabins, offering flexible installation options at different stages of your project.

Off-grid solar systems: Complete energy independence
For those seeking complete independence from the grid, off-grid solar systems are the ultimate solution. These systems require a combination of solar panels, large battery banks, and often a backup generator to ensure a consistent power supply. Off-grid systems necessitate careful power management and lifestyle adjustments, as they do not allow you to sell excess power back to the grid. Whether you're living in a remote area or simply want to be fully self-sufficient, Coastal Solar's off-grid solutions provide the reliability and freedom you need to power your life independently.
With a commitment to the highest customer service standards, we guarantee to beat any competitor's quote by 5%. Whether you're looking for a grid-tied, hybrid, or off-grid system, Coastal Solar offers custom solutions and flexible installations to meet your unique needs.

Proper installation requires careful planning, precise angling, and secure fastening to ensure optimal energy production and durability. We have years of experience and will ensure your solar panel installation is done to the highest standards.
String inverters connect multiple solar panels in series, managing the power from all panels together, while micro inverters are installed on each panel individually, optimising performance and reducing the impact of shading or panel issues on the entire system.
Solar panel installation involves mounting photovoltaic (PV) panels on a property's roof or ground-mounted rack, connecting them to an inverter and electrical panel, and integrating with the existing electrical system.
