The Benefits of a Home Solar Battery

A home solar battery, paired with your solar installation, will store the power your system produces. This allows it to be used whenever you need it, even when the sun isn’t shining. If you experience a power outage or even a string of cloudy days, your home solar battery will provide you power.

Peace of Mind

With utility companies changing over to a time-of-use system, your battery will allow you to change your power usage to when the cost of power is cheaper, helping you save. You’ll also be protected against potential power outages. In some cases, our customers have reported reducing their utility bill significantly or eliminating it completely due to the use of a battery with their solar system.

Home Battery Installation

Included in your solar energy system, the type and number of batteries will be determined by a few factors. The first factor is your overall energy usage.

Ask yourself these questions:

  • How much energy do you use?
  • When do you use energy the most?
  • Can you reduce your energy consumption if you pull from a battery?
  • How often do you want to use the grid for electricity?

Many of our solar power system installations include a battery bank to help eliminate your reliance on the utility grid, but we typically keep homeowners linked to the grid as an additional backup.

Solar batteries are installed along with your solar power system so you can go green, help the environment, and reduce your energy bill.
