The early development of solar technologies starting in the 1860s was driven by an expectation that coal would soon become scarce, such as experiments by . installed the world's first rooftop photovoltaic solar array, using 1%-efficient cells, on a New York City roof in 1884. However, development of solar technologies stagnated in the early 20th centu.

The two types of stand-alone photovoltaic power systems are direct-coupled system without batteries and stand alone system with batteries. The basic model of a direct coupled system consists of a solar panel connected directly to a dc load. As there are no battery banks in this setup, energy is not stored and hence it is capable of powering common appliances like fans, pum.
