   Off-the-grid or off-grid is a characteristic of buildings and a lifestyle [1] designed in an independent manner without reliance on one or more public utilities. The term "off-the-grid" traditionally refers to not being connected to the electrical grid , but can also include other utilities like water, gas, and sewer systems, and can scale from ...

3. Stand-alone power system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stand-alone_power_system

   A typical stand-alone solar PV system at a sewage treatment plant in Santuari de Lluc, Spain. Stand-alone photovoltaic power systems are independent of the utility grid and may use solar panels only or may be used in conjunction with a diesel generator, a wind turbine or batteries. [1] [2]

4. Photovoltaic system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photovoltaic_system

   A stand-alone or off-grid system is not connected to the electrical grid. Standalone systems vary widely in size and application from wristwatches or calculators to remote buildings or spacecraft. If the load is to be supplied independently of solar insolation, the generated power is stored and buffered with a battery. [121]

   The U.S. had approximately 440 MW of off-grid photovoltaics as of the end of 2010. Through the end of 2005, a majority of photovoltaics in the United States was off-grid. [41]: p.6 [42] Solar is expected to account for 51 GW (or 48%) of the new installed generating capacity in the United States from 2022 to 2023. [43]

7. Rooftop solar power - Wikipedia
