Solar panels (or photovoltaic cells – PV) convert sunlight to produce energy. Without storage, this energy needs to be transferred and tied to the local utility grid. It’s a great system set-up to help offset grid power demands during peak hours, as well as a way to lower, or even eliminate, energy bills.
RESIDENTIAL BATTERY ENERGY STORAGE
Energy storage makes that electricity usable after sunset. Without a way to store power, excess solar energy is exported to the grid or lost. With the right solar energy storage system, that same energy can be used at night, to help lower and offset high energy bills, and when the grid goes down. Solar energy storage turns solar from a daytime upgrade into a full-time power resource. Think of solar panels as the paycheck and battery storage as the savings account.
