ROOF-MOUNTED SOLAR

​

Benefit from PV electricity from your own roof, which is always cheaper than grid-sourced energy. Save up to 50% of your annual electricity bill, improve your carbon footprint and strengthen your image as an environmentally conscious company.

 

Advantages: solar power is up to five times cheaper than grid-sourced electricity, meaning a solar PV system provides a super fast pay back within 4 to 7 years depending on installed capacity. Roof-mounted solar is suitable for most warehouse roofs and is the most affordable option.

 

GROUND-MOUNTED SOLAR

​

Suitable for large scale electricity consumers, for land and farm owners (Agrovoltaics) in suburban or rural settings. Open-space systems generate green energy allowing greater flexibility with angle and orientation of solar panels. Agrovoltaics: by installing solar panels above crops, farmers can harness the sun's energy while optimizing land use and reducing water consumption.

 

OFF-GRID SOLAR

​

Off-grid solar requires meticulous engineering approach combining requirement of electrical loads and hours of operation during the day. Having experience and understanding of off-grid solar engineering from European market, we design and install top of the art off-grid solar system that will function and provide you electricity as you expect it.

 

SOLAR CARPORTS

​

While a roof space might be limited or busy with roof obstructions such as HVAC units, solar carports are an ideal solution that generates electricity while providing shade for your colleagues and clients. With around 350 sunny days in Oman, this application is ideal for institutional, educational, assembly and business buildings.

BATTERY ENERGY STORAGE SYSTEM

 

Oman’s Vision 2040 and transition to producing eco-friendly renewable energy such as solar, hydro, and wind resulted in the demand for large-scale battery storage. The installation of energy storage as a backup system in case of non-availability of electricity for some reasons is crucial to undisrupted business transactions.

 

Batteries store the free electricity harnessed from the solar system, allowing commercial businesses to discharge the needed power to keep the business operational. Battery storage uses chemicals to absorb and release energy. It typically uses Lithium-Ion for storing electricity. This technology is vital to renewable energy generation. It keeps the power during low-demand hours and releases it during peak hours.

 

It typically uses Lithium-ion (Li-ion), Nickel Cadmium (Ni-Cd), Nickel-Metal Hydride (Ni-MH), and Lead-Acid. The most commonly used storage for the grid-connect solar system is the Li-ion because it offers high energy density, good charge retention, little to no memory effect, is safe for most applications, and has the best performance-to-weight ratio. The commercial battery storage unit’s lifespan depends on the discharge frequency and charge cycle. The manufacturers provide a standard warranty period and information on the minimum number of charging cycles.

 

Generally, battery units are stackable and modular. The size varies depending on its manufacturer. You will need several units and a plant room for a large-scale commercial battery storage solution. Small and medium-sized commercial companies may only need a single battery unit mounted on the wall or the ground. For larger batteries shipping containers are used.

While commercial battery storage is a relatively new technology, the shift to harnessing solar energy makes it a viable solution for businesses. Our company Green Tech Energy and Water can help you save money long-term, reduce carbon dioxide emissions, and become independent from electric grid. Whether you wish to have stand-alone commercial storage or integrate storage units with your solar system, our professional and experienced specialists can do it for you.
