Technical FAQs 4

Do solar panels need battery storage?

But without battery storage, your solar system only works during the day or when connected to the grid. That’s where batteries come in. What Does a Battery Storage System Do? A battery stores the extra electricity your solar panels generate during the day so you can use it: It’s like having a power bank for your house.

What is solar battery energy storage?

This is where solar battery energy storage systems come into play. These systems store excess solar energy for later use, ensuring a continuous power supply even when the sun isn't shining. The concept of solar battery energy storage is gaining traction among homeowners, businesses, and governments.

Should you invest in a solar battery energy storage system?

Investing in a solar battery energy storage system offers numerous benefits, including: Energy Independence: Reduce reliance on the power grid and have access to energy anytime. Cost Savings: Lower electricity bills by using stored energy during peak hours when grid electricity is more expensive.

How do solar panels & battery storage work?

Solar panels help you generate power. Battery storage helps you keep that power for use when the sun isn't shining. The combo? A 24/7 personal energy ecosystem. Let’s start at square one. How do solar panels work? They absorb sunlight and turn it into electricity (called DC power). An inverter then converts it into AC power for your home.
