Mongolia has both nomadic herders in remote areas and urban households in cities like Ulaanbaatar, and their energy needs vary greatly, requiring tailored solar solutions.
Mongolia's nomadic herders move frequently, so they need portable, durable, and off-grid solar power systems.
Components: solar panel, all-in-one solar generator (within solar inverter, battery)
Usage: Charging phones, LED lighting, powering radios, small AC appliances
Capacity: 20W–2500W
Components: foldable solar panels, power station
Usage: Charging phones, laptops, and other small electronics
Ulaanbaatar and other urban centers have access to the grid, but unreliable power supply, high electricity costs and air pollution from coal stoves make solar energy a better mode of power generation.
Capacity: 5kW–20kW
Components: solar panels, on grid solar inverter, net metering system
Usage: Reducing electricity bills by feeding excess energy into the grid
Advantage: Lower investment costs without needing batteries
Components: Solar panels, hybrid solar inverter, battery storage
Usage: Backup power during outages, reducing grid dependence
Advantage: Ensures reliable power during blackouts
