MSc Program - Renewable Energy in Central and Eastern Europe Dipl.-Ing. Hubert Fechner Modul 3 – Solar Energy Titel Stand alone PV Systems Stand alone systems –no connection to the public grid –interconnection would be too costly –in case of net interruptions stand alone systems can care for energy services in times of blackouts. For stand alone systems, a battery system is necessary –Also the installation of a charge controller is necessary
