Battery Storage

This rapidly advancing technology will enhance your solar PV panel system substantially. It takes generating your own electricity to the next level and allows you to store power for when it’s really needed, when everyone is at home after dark and running multiple appliances for example. If you already have solar panels installed in your property, or you plan to install in the future, battery storage must be considered.

Expert Solar Panel Installers: Bringing Sustainable Energy Solutions to Your Home or Business

What is Solar Battery Storage?

Battery storage, or solar batteries, give you the added benefit of storing your solar energy. The battery extends the use of your solar PV system by storing the unused power for use when the panels are not generating electricity, such as at night / after dark. This gives you a free renewable energy source at all times, which is not reliant on the solar panels alone. This will also help reduce your consumption from the grid and further protect your home or business from future energy prices rises.

Battery Storage options

There are many battery storage options on the market, from well-known and leading brands including Tesla, Samsung, Sonnen, LG Chem and Solex. All come with different levels of power storage and usage capacity, warranty and life spans, which is reflected in the price. Also, there are lithium ion options available. Compared with traditional batteries, a lithium ion battery charges much faster and lasts longer. It also has a higher power density for more battery life and it comes in a smaller package.

It’s important to ensure that the choice of battery storage is suitable for the solar panels that are installed, or you plan to install. If you contact us, we are able to talk you through all of the available options and explain the benefits of each product.

Benefits when you pair Battery Storage with your Solar Panels

  1. Store energy for later use
    Use more of the solar power generated by your panels. Store electricity for use at night.
  1. More savings on energy costs
    As you’ll be using stored electricity generated by your solar panels you won’t need to use it from national grid / energy provider.
  1. Increase your energy independence
    Become independent from the national grid and inconsistent energy providers.
  1. Further reduce your carbon footprint
    As you are using more renewable energy you will become less reliant on the carbon alternative.

We are fully accredited by the Microgeneration Certification Scheme (MCS) and are members of the Renewable Energy Consumer Code (RECC), so you can rest assured that our installations meet the highest industry standards.

Frequently Asked Questions

Solar panels work by converting sunlight into electricity through a process called the photovoltaic effect. The panels are made up of silicon cells that absorb photons from the sun, which knock electrons loose from their atoms to create an electrical current. The current is then converted into usable electricity by an inverter, which can power homes or businesses.

The cost of solar panels can vary depending on several factors, including the size of the system, the type of panel used, and installation costs. On average, a residential solar panel system can cost anywhere from £10,000 to £30,000, although prices may be lower or higher depending on the location and the specific needs of the homeowner.

Solar panels do not generate electricity at night since they require sunlight to produce electricity. However, many homes and businesses with solar panels are connected to the grid and can draw power from the grid at night when solar energy is not available.

Most solar panels are designed to last for 25 to 30 years or more, although their efficiency may decrease slightly over time. Proper installation, maintenance, and care can help to extend the life of solar panels.

Yes, solar panels can increase the value of a home. Homes with solar panels are generally more attractive to potential buyers since they offer lower energy costs and environmental benefits.

Solar panels can be installed on most types of roofs, including flat, sloped, and metal roofs. The specific installation method may vary depending on the type of roof, but most roofs can support the weight of solar panels.

The requirements for planning permission for solar panel installation can vary depending on the location and regulations of the specific area. In many cases, homeowners and businesses can install solar panels without planning permission, but it’s important to check with the local government or building department to confirm the requirements in your area.

Solar Panels

Power your future with clean energy – the possibilities are endless!

There are numerous benefits to
using solar panels, including:

  • Sell back to the grid
  • Reducing your carbon footprint
  • Protect against future energy price increases
  • Reduce your energy bills
  • Increase the value of your property
  • Improved Energy Performance Rating
  • Very little maintenance
  • No planning permission
  • Free site survey and quotation

Reduced Energy Costs:

Solar panels can generate electricity to power homes and businesses, which can reduce or even eliminate the need for grid power.

Sell back to the grid:

Homes and businesses have the potential to sell excess energy back to the grid. The excess energy can be credited towards their energy bill.

Increased property value:

Homes and businesses with solar panels are generally more attractive to potential buyers and renters, as they offer lower energy costs.

Environmental sustainability:

Solar energy is a clean and renewable source of energy that produces zero emissions, helping to reduce climate change.

Energy independence:

Generating your own electricity means you are less reliant on the grid, giving you greater control over your energy usage and costs.

Future energy costs:

As energy costs continue to rise, installing solar panels can help protect you against future increases by locking in your electricity costs.

Reliability:

Because solar panels have no moving parts, they require very little maintenance, making them a reliable and low-maintenance source of energy.
