On-Grid Solar Daylight House

On-Grid Solar Daylight House (Without Storage System) Project

The project was implemented by Engineer Abdul Rahman Al-Hayali

This project demonstrates a sustainable and minimalistic solar-powered house that operates directly from solar energy during daylight hours — without any energy storage or battery system.

Concept Overview:

The house is designed to function using solar panels that convert sunlight into electricity in real-time. Once the panels are exposed to light, they instantly power the lighting system of the house and the surrounding garden area. This setup eliminates the need for batteries, charge controllers, or any form of energy storage.

Key Features:

• Solar-Only Operation: Electricity is generated solely when sunlight is present.

• No Batteries Required: Reduces cost, complexity, and environmental impact.

• Direct Load Activation: LED lights and components are triggered immediately upon solar exposure.

• On-Grid Simulation: Mimics a daytime grid-tied operation where power is consumed directly as it is generated.

• Handmade Wooden Model: A detailed architectural model crafted using wooden sticks, complete with landscape features like a fountain, garden, and pathway.

• Multiple Solar Panels: Four small photovoltaic panels are connected in parallel to maximize sunlight capture and ensure stable voltage to the lighting elements.

Educational Value:

This model is ideal for:

• Showcasing the concept of direct-use solar energy.

• Demonstrating energy efficiency for low-load applications.

• Highlighting the simplicity and affordability of basic solar setups.

Use Cases:

• Day-use facilities (e.g., rural clinics, small garden houses, or kiosks).

• Solar demonstration kits for schools and exhibitions.

• Areas where battery storage is not viable or cost-effective.
