Battery Storage Basics

Solar

Batteries are a key component of modern solar power systems. Solar power systems have become one of the fastest growing sources of energy in Australia. As a matter of fact, the solar power industry is expected to double in size by the year 2023.

The rising popularity of solar power has contributed to the improvement of various energy storage technologies like batteries. Solar batteries are now more robust and efficient than ever before. While the main work of solar panels is to create electrical energy from sunlight, the main work of solar batteries is to store this energy for later use.

Battery Storage Basics

Solar

Once you have invested in a solar power system for your home or business, you want to make sure that you are getting the best value for your money. Apart from the visible solar panels on your roof, there are other components of your solar power system that play a key role in keeping your lights on. Solar batteries are one of these components.

A basic solar power system is made up of solar panels, an inverter, mounting equipment, and a performance monitor that tracks electricity production. Solar batteries can be added in cases where your system produces more energy that you require. Solar batteries basically store the energy produced by your solar system for later use. 

Why Do You Need Batteries?

WHY

When you add batteries to your solar power system, you are able to store excess solar energy in your home as opposed to sending it back to the grid or letting it go to waste. If your panels produce more power than your need, the excess energy can be used to charge the batteries.

Later, when your panels are not generating electricity (for instance, at night) you can draw power from the batteries. So, you don’t have to worry if your area is experiencing bad weather or the sun is simply not shining strongly and your panels are not producing enough electricity to meet your needs.

To Store Or Not To Store - Should You Add Batteries To Your System?

Batteries are definitely a crucial addition to any type of solar power system, be it residential or commercial. Batteries allow you to store excess energy generated by your solar panels which helps increase the efficiency of your solar power system. On top of this, solar batteries can act as a short-term power back-up in the event of a power outage. This means that you won’t be in the dark when the lights go out.

You can save a lot of money and also get a good return on investment by choosing to invest in high-quality solar batteries. Contact GCR Electrical Systems today if you are looking for quality, reliable solar energy storage solutions.
