It can be helpful whether you want to reduce spending on electricity bills, or want to cut your carbon footprint. It will also be good to use as a backup supply when there are major power breakdowns.

Portable or Fixed?

There is a common confusion surrounding the purchase of a solar generator. There are two main types of solar generators that can be used at home. One of these is a regular or fixed generator, and the other one is a portable device.

Fixed Generator

This type of solar generator can be installed in an area of your house that receives maximum sunlight. In most cases, it is possible to place the battery and inverter inside the house while installing the panels on the roof or other areas with plenty of sunlight. An electrical connection is made between the two where energy is transmitted to the battery for storage.

With this it is possible to create a backup power supply line where you can connect some of your electrical equipment such as cell phone charger, lights, and fans to the device. This will serve as a permanent connection that can supplement your power supply.

Portable Generator

A portable generator does not have the limitation of being permanently installed. You can use this type of generator for power supply in urban areas, or remote places without any installation. It comes in a movable format with wheels attached to the equipment. This means that you can take it anywhere you want, and even move it to different parts of an office or house for maximum utility.

A portable generator generally has a very compact shape where every part, including the solar panels, is attached to a single platform. This construction can be limiting as you will need to place it in a location that receives maximum sunlight. Power generation might also be affected as building shadows and other factors might hamper its functionality, but this is where the portability comes in handy.

Which One is Right for You?

You can make the right selection of solar generator by studying your needs. You can forgo the decision of installing solar panels if you live in an area with reliable electrical supply and minimal instances of weather extremities. If, however, you experience regular power outages then it is important to have a backup power supply.

A fixed generator will be a better option as it will provide enough power to use appliances and lights. The capabilities of a fixed generator normally outweigh a portable one too. If you need plenty of power to keep you going, a fixed one would be best.

A portable generator will be a better option if you live in a rental accommodation or if there are rules and regulations involved in installing solar panels. It is also the perfect option if you want to use it in remote places with no electricity connections.
