Solar Storage

Solar batteries allow grid-tied solar energy users to reduce their dependence on utility companies. In the case of a power outage, having a backup of stored renewable energy can go a long way. The cost-saving solar power systems offer home and business owners incorporating solar batteries are great additions. We love helping customers integrate leading brands like Tesla Powerwalls and Franklin batteries into solar power systems.

For the majority of solar systems, excess energy generated by the sun is sent back to the grid. Most utility companies use net metering, which means that they’ll give a credit for that extra power in monthly bills. With solar storage systems in your home or business, excess power from your solar panels is delivered to a solar battery. The battery then sends energy to the grid when it’s full. In the case of power outages, your home will draw power from the battery. 

Batteries differ in their power capacity. Capacity makes the difference of a solar battery powering essential appliances for a few hours – or up to a full day. Companies like Generac will also differentiate warranties around how much of battery’s capacity is maintained over time.offer
