Solar Battery Storage Installation

So you are planning on investing in solar panels for their environmental and cost-saving benefits, but why stop there? Solar batteries, or solar battery storage allow you to store electricity generated from the sun, which you can then use at a later date. This means that you aren’t completely reliant on the sun for immediate energy production. With solar battery storage, you can access power at night, and on cloudy days when sunlight is limited. Adding a solar battery also allows you to become less reliant on your grid, and use more renewable energy. 

We offer solar battery storage as a part of our solar panel installation, but we can also install batteries to existing solar panel systems. Our renewable energy specialists will be able to provide you with more information on battery storage and offer tailored advice on the solar PV system you may need. If you would like to find out more information about our solar battery systems, please complete the contact form on our website or call our telephone number.

How Do Solar Panels Work?

Solar panels are made up of cells which are typically constructed from silicone. When the sun shines on these cells, they produce an electrical charge as they become energised by the sun. The electrical charge creates a direct current (DC) of electricity, which is then passed through an inverter in your solar system to turn it into alternating current (AC). Alternating current is the current needed for household appliances. 

The cells within a solar system don’t need direct sunlight to work, but the stronger the sunshine, the more energy is generated. Any electricity which doesn’t get used can be stored in a solar battery which can then be used at a later date, ensuring you have a constant supply of electricity year round. Although solar panels require an initial investment, once the installation costs are recouped, you can power your home or business for free.

How Do Solar Batteries Work?

Solar panel batteries work by storing the excess energy generated by solar panels and converting it into electricity, which can then be used when the sun isn’t present. Having a solar battery means you are less reliant on the power grid and can use more energy that’s generated through the solar panels. 

If you were to have solar panels without a storage battery, your solar system would be fairly inefficient. Any energy generated during the day which isn’t used would then be sent back to the power grid, and you wouldn’t be able to use it at night. The ability to store energy during periods of limited sunlight makes your solar system more practical and efficient.

Solar PV and Battery Storage FAQs

The cost to install solar panels at your home or business can vary depending on several factors. The amount of solar panels needed, your property’s power needs, and the complexity of your solar system can all affect the cost.

Having the ability to convert sunlight into usable electrical energy means you can expect to save money. The amount of money you can save with solar energy depends on your energy usage, and how many solar panels you have installed. That being said, you can expect to save around 70-80% on your energy bill, and once your solar system has paid for itself, you can power your home or business for free. 

The amount of solar panels required for your home will depend upon its size. Typically, a 2 bedroom house will need 4-8 panels (2-3kW), a 3 bedroom house will need between 8 and 13 panels (4-5kW), and a 4-5 bedroom house will need 13-16 panels (6kW). The direction of your roof, sunlight hours in your area, and roof space are all factors which determine how many panels you may need. 

The short answer is yes, but your solar panels won’t be anywhere near as effective in comparison to having a storage battery. To put it simply, you can only use the electricity which is generated during the daytime, which isn’t very effective knowing most people aren’t at home during the day. Any excess energy produced is sent back to the power grid so you miss out on the benefits of storing the energy for later. 

There are many benefits of using solar panels to power your home or business. Some of these benefits include low maintenance, saving money on your energy bills, increasing your property value if you ever come to sell, improving your carbon footprint, using less carbon emissions, reducing fossil fuels, and having complete energy independence. Most homes won’t require planning permission for PV panels but it’s worth checking with your local authority on regulations for your property. Take your energy saving to the next level by having EV charging points, and air source heat pumps installed.
