An introduction to home battery storage
Home storage batteries are invaluable for homes that are vacant during daylight hours when solar panels are actively generating power. In such cases, solar energy is often exported to the grid. Later, when the household is occupied in the evening and appliances like ovens and dishwashers are in use, electricity is drawn from the grid at higher rates. By utilizing home storage batteries, excess power generated during the day can be stored and used during the evening and overnight periods. This maximises the energy harvested by solar panels and reduces reliance on grid electricity during peak pricing times.
Solar power in NI is less prevalent during the winter months due to darker mornings and evenings. While we can't control the weather, you can still harness the benefits of your home battery storage. Charging it overnight on a cheaper night tariff allows you to utilise more cost-effective power during the darker months when solar energy production is at its lowest.
We offer a range of the highest quality home storage batteries, to find out which one would work best for you, take a look through our options or contact us to discuss.
