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.

How do I Pair my solar panels with a battery storage system?

Let’s break it down. Here’s how to pair your solar panels with a battery storage system, step by step. Look at your utility bills. Figure out your average daily usage (in kWh). Consider any future appliances, EVs, or lifestyle changes. You want to produce more than you use. If your home uses 30 kWh/day, aim for 35–40 kWh/day from solar.

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.

What can you use a solar charger for?

Portable solar chargers, such as those the size of a smartphone, can be used by students to keep their personal devices powered even when they are not near an electrical outlet. Solar chargers are also available to power medical equipment, including CPAP devices, oxygen tanks, and infusion pumps.
