Solar Battery Storage

A solar battery storage system works by storing excess electricity generated by solar panels for later use. Here’s a simplified explanation of how it works:

Solar Panels: Solar panels on your roof or property capture sunlight and convert it into electricity in the form of direct current (DC).

Inverter: The DC electricity generated by the solar panels is sent to an inverter, which converts it into alternating current (AC) electricity, the type used in most homes.

Power Consumption: Your home uses the solar-generated electricity for its power needs. Any excess electricity that the solar panels produce is sent to the battery storage system instead of being exported to the grid.

Battery Charging: The excess electricity is used to charge the batteries in the storage system. These batteries store the electricity for later use, such as during the night or when the sun isn’t shining.

Discharging: When the solar panels aren’t producing enough electricity to meet your home’s needs (e.g., at night), the system draws power from the batteries to provide continuous electricity supply.

Grid Connection (optional) : If the batteries are depleted and solar production is insufficient, the system can switch to the grid as a backup power source. Some systems also allow you to sell excess electricity back to the grid when the batteries are full. Overall, a solar battery storage system helps increase energy self-sufficiency, reduce reliance on the grid, and ensure a more consistent and reliable power supply from your solar panels.
