With the increase in domestic and commercial solar PV installation, many people are looking for ways to store their surplus energy. Battery storage allows you to store this surplus energy to use when your panels aren’t generating any electricity, meaning you don’t have to use energy from the National Grid.

There are different capacity bands of batteries, and we’ll ensure we find the right size for your property. Solar battery storage is a great way to increase your self-consumption and further lower your carbon footprint.

Benefits of investing in Battery Storage

Optimise usage

Solar panels generate 100% renewable energy. On sunnier days when you generate more electricity than you are using in that moment, you can store it in a battery. According to the Microgeneration Certification Scheme, the average household utilised 35-50% of their system without a battery, and with the inclusion of battery storage, this could rise to 80%.

Save on energy bills

In the evenings when there is little to no daylight, without battery storage you would have to pay for energy from the grid. Installing a battery allows you to store surplus energy generated in the day and use it at a later point in the day.

Energy Independence

Storing extra electricity, means you are less reliant on the National Grid for electricity. If there was to be a power cut, you would be less affected as you have your own energy store. Having a battery storage system increases your energy independence.

Lower your carbon footprint

Without a battery, you switch back to using energy from the National Grid. Using a battery means you use more renewable energy, lowering your home or your business’ carbon output.

Reduce pressure on the National Grid

The current pressure on electricity has never been higher with more electrical devices in use than ever before. Having battery storage means you are reducing the overall pressure on the National Grid which uses coal fired power stations.
