Store your excess solar energy for when you need it the most

Why add battery storage to your solar panel system

Adding battery storage for solar panels allows you to store any excess energy you generate during the day and use it when you need it most – in the evenings, and at other peak energy times.

Instead of sending unused solar energy back to the grid, having battery storage enables you to power your home with your own low-carbon energy, helping you save hundreds on your annual energy bills and reducing your reliance on the grid.

Many UK energy companies now provide smart off-peak tariffs – so, with battery storage, you can take advantage of these cheaper tariffs by charging your battery when electricity costs less, and using that stored energy during the day, cutting your energy bills even further.

Top 3 reasons for home batteries

CUT ENERGY BILLS

Store the energy generated during the day to use at night when costs are higher

Maximise your solar power use

With battery storage, you’ll use more of the power your solar panels generate

Gain energy security

Reduce your reliance on the National Grid and take control of your energy

Benefits of solar battery storage

GET THE MOST FROM your solar PANEL SYSTEM

Solar battery storage allows you to capture all of the electricity you need for when you need it most – reducing your reliance on the grid and avoiding higher energy tariffs

custom set up for life

Everyone’s lifestyle and energy usage are different, and your solar panel and battery system can be configured to provide the most efficient energy system for your needs. We take the time to get to know your energy requirements and design your system accordingly

Control at your finger tips

You can view and control your home solar power system from your phone – check on everything from how much energy you have produced to the level of charge of your battery

Solar Battery Storage: How It Works

Your solar panels generate electricity in the form of direct current (DC), and this power flows to an inverter where it’s converted to alternating current (AC) for your home usage
Any excess electricity not immediately needed is used to charge the battery itself
When your solar panels aren’t producing enough electricity, the battery discharges stored energy to power your home. You can even use your battery to charge your electric vehicle if you have one

Battery storage without solar panels

You can start your journey to clean, renewable energy without investing in a full solar installation. Storage batteries, also known as battery energy storage systems (BESS), can take electricity from the grid and hold it for later use.

The battery will charge from the grid when energy is cheapest, usually at night. You can then use the stored energy during peak hours, cutting your bills. Your battery storage system requires the battery itself, an inverter, and an import tariff from your energy supplier to ensure you can utilise the best rates – but we can advise on all of this, so get in touch with us today.
