How does a solar air conditioner works:
- In simple terms, solar ACs use solar panels to power the air conditioning system.
- Solar panels collect energy from the sun. They convert this energy into power. That power either goes directly to the air conditioner or to a battery where it’s stored until the AC needs it.
- Most solar AC systems are hybrid, meaning they use traditional electricity sources in addition to solar power. Hybrid systems are more popular in very hot environments where it’s necessary to run the AC at night (when there’s no sun) to keep comfortable.
- For complete off-the-grid air conditioning, there are solar-only systems. These are more energy-efficient but don’t offer the same flexibility as hybrid systems.
- In simple terms, solar ACs use solar panels to power the air conditioning system.
Types of Solar-Powered Air Conditioners
Conditioners come in three types: DC current, AC current, and hybrids that can run on both types of power.
-
DC units
Solar panels output DC power. So if the air conditioner fan and compressor have DC motors, they can use that power directly. Such units typically operate at 12, 24 or 48 volts.
-
AC units
These utilize the 120-volt AC signal from the power grid. They can operate directly from a solar panel, but the panel signal has to first pass through an inverter, which reduces efficiency.
-
Hybrid units
These use DC and AC signals. They can draw directly from the panels when the sun is out, and from the power grid when it's not.
Solar Powered Air Conditioning Options
Even with solar-powered air conditioners, there are a few different options available. These differ based on the mode of power that the air conditioner is getting. Let’s see them below.
- DC-Powered Solar Air Conditioners
- AC-Powered Solar Air Conditioners
- Hybrid Powered Solar Air Conditioners
DC Powered Solar Air Conditioners
Also known as conventional solar-powered air conditioners, DC solar air conditioners run on direct current (DC) electricity, meaning that the solar panels are directly wired to it. They can run through the batteries, which are charged through solar power; therefore can run entirely off-grid. They use solar panels, photovoltaic panels to collect sunlight and turn it into electric energy. This type of air conditioner provides a few major advantages, which are:
- As a solar panel produces DC electricity, running such an air conditioner directly off the solar panel will not be a problem.
- DC-powered solar air conditioners are the go-to option for complete off-the-grid living and you can run them with minimal extra equipment cost, as in AC-powered air conditioners.
- They are easy to install and maintain.
- The disadvantage of such a system is that you would need a hefty battery bank to supply power for night time operation.
- The other option is to use a rectifier device to convert the AC electricity from the power mains to DC and then run the air conditioner.
- Still, it defeats the whole purpose of a solar-powered air conditioner!
AC Powered Solar Air Conditioners
Alternating Current is the more well-known solar air conditioner. For AC air conditioners to run with solar power, you need a device known as an inverter, converting the DC from the solar panels into AC.
The inverter is an integral part of such a setup. Moreover, the solar powered air conditioner then uses up the energy stored in a battery after passing through the inverter. Due to this reason, AC powered solar air conditioners provide the following advantages:
- These air conditioners can also be tied up to the grid power and run as a standard air conditioner. You don’t require an extra equipment since this air conditioner can run on AC power.
- The primary advantage of such a system is that you can run it with grid power and solar panels.
- If these ACs are tied to the grid, you can give excess electricity produced back to the grid and get credits for it by a process called net metering.
Hybrid Powered Solar Air Conditioners
Hybrid solar-powered air conditioners can run on both DC and AC at the same time, seamlessly. Such units can be connected to both the solar panels/batteries directly and to the grid at the same time. The unit can then use the appropriate power source according to the time of day and power load.
- There is no additional equipment, such as an inverter, which means the total costs are also less.
- They can switch between solar power and grid power smoothly.
- They are very flexible to operate during all times of the day and seasons.
- The disadvantage of this system is that if your batteries are not charged and installed it off-grid, it won’t work at night.
How Many Solar Panels Do I Need for Solar Air Conditioning?
The number of solar panels you need to run your solar air conditioning system depends on a few key factors:
- Your home’s overall energy consumption
- Your solar panels’ output and efficiency
- The amount of annual sunlight your home receives
- At a minimum, your rooftop solar panel system should generate enough energy to offset the power consumption of your air conditioner. For instance, if your air conditioner requires 900 watts of power, you would need three solar panels rated at 300 watts each.
- If you want to power your entire home (including the air conditioner) with renewable energy, you must install enough solar panels to cover the entire property’s electrical load. To calculate this, take a look at your utility bills to see the amount of electricity your home consumes annually (in kWh).
As an example, let’s say you use an average of 1,000 kWh per month. This means that your solar energy system would have to generate approximately 33 kWh daily (1000 kWh divided by 30) or 1,390 watts per hour (33kWh divided by 24 hours x 1000). - In areas with 6 hours of peak sunlight, you would then have to generate approximately 8,340 watt-hours daily (6 x 1,390) to cover the entire electrical load. With 400W modules, this means you should install approximately 21 solar panels (8,340Wh divided by 400W) to power your entire home and air conditioning system.
