What is a Solar Battery? In short solar batteries, or solar power storage, allow you to store electricity generated from the sun through your solar panels for later use.

Adding solar batteries is a great way to use more renewable energy, utilising the power you generate yourself and decreasing your reliance on the grid. If required, we can also design systems which can deliver emergency power to your home in the event of a power cut.

Lately, we’ve found that some homeowners have opted for battery storage even without having solar panels- for example their roof may not be suitable for having such a system. The homeowner then utilises an off-peak cheap energy tariff to charge the batteries overnight, and dissipate the energy the next day during peak periods, meaning they are running their home with much cheaper electricity.

We offer solar batteries as part of our solar panel installation packages, or you can add solar batteries to an existing solar panel system. Our dedicated team of solar and battery-storage experts will provide information and advice to help you choose the right power storage solution for your needs. 

Adding Battery Storage

Solar panels generate the most power during daylight hours, which is often when homes use the least electricity. While this unused electricity can be sold back to the grid, you could benefit more by storing it in a solar battery and using the energy to power your own home. A solar battery package maximises your use of the low-carbon energy you're generating from the sun. This means you'll import less electricity from the grid, saving you money on your energy bills.

How Do Solar Batteries Work?

Solar panel batteries store the excess energy produced by solar panels during the day for later use when the sun isn't shining. There are two main battery technologies currently used: lithium-ion and lead-acid, both designed to handle the cyclic charging and discharging required for solar energy storage. 
Energy Generation
When sunlight hits a solar panel, the solar cells convert the sunlight into direct current (DC) electrical energy.
Energy Conversion
This DC electricity flows to an inverter, which converts it into alternating current (AC) for use in your home.
Energy Storage
Excess DC energy not immediately used charges the battery.
Energy Usage
At night or during periods of high demand, the stored energy discharges to power your appliances and devices, allowing you to reap the benefits of solar power long after the sun has set.

Financial Options and Savings

Many banks these days offer green loans for renewable projects so it would be worth checking with your bank first as this could be the cheapest option. We also allow you to spread the cost of a home battery system with 3 years interest-free credit.

We only install the most reputable brands from sustainable suppliers so your investment is protected with manufacturer’s 10-year warranty on battery storage products.

FAQs - Battery Storage Solutions

Here are some FAQs that we get to make it easier for you to find the information you need. If you don't find the answer to your question here, please feel free to contact us for further assistance.

Yes, you can add a solar battery to an existing solar panel system. For larger or more complex systems, separate inverters for the battery and PV may be required.

Our solar batteries come with a 10-year manufacturer’s warranty, ensuring long-term performance and reliability. 

Solar battery storage allows you to store excess energy, reduce reliance on the grid, save on electricity bills, and in some systems, ensure a reliable power supply even during outages.

A solar inverter converts the DC electricity generated by your solar panels into AC electricity that can be used to power your home. In systems with battery storage, hybrid inverters are often used to manage both PV and battery functions.

The cost of a solar battery varies based on size and capacity. Prices start from £3,468, and we offer flexible financing options to make your investment more affordable. 

Using the power of the sun is one of the most energy-efficient ways to generate electricity for your home, saving you money. The savings shown are based on various factors, including the number of panels installed and whether you have a solar battery.
