Solar Batteries

Why Solar Batteries:

Solar batteries are the future of solar-powered technology. While solar panels provide a source of energy during the day, the energy stored in solar batteries is an essential tool to power your home after the sun has set. Don’t rely on the grid to power your property through the night. Think smarter with the high impact of solar batteries.

The Top Two Benefits To Solar Batteries:

Benefit Number One

Become Your Own Powerplant

 

It's true; once solar panels get installed on your roof, you begin to produce your own energy. Adding solar batteries to the equation allows you to become your own powerplant. Instead of sending electricity back into the grid, your batteries collect it, allowing you to draw your own power whenever you need it.

Benefit Number Two

 Store Back-Up Power

 

The number one reason people get solar batteries is to have power during inclement weather or a utility blackout. Similar to a diesel or gasoline generator, the batteries will produce electricity for your house. Unlike generators, batteries are maintenance-free and automatically kick on when your home needs them.

Solar Batteries Provide Energy Consistency!

One of the most difficult challenges that individuals with solar systems in their homes face is the inconsistency of power. It may be nearly impossible in some locations to receive power to your home after a period of cloudy days or a night when energy is necessary. These disadvantages have the potential to cause extremely high utility bills, even with solar panels, because your home will have to draw power from the grid. And since the utility company controls the rate they charge for electricity, there's no telling what amount you'll be paying.

The best way to avoid this situation is with the power of solar batteries. Many homeowners bundle in solar batteries with their new solar panel system to have maximum control over their utility usage.

Batteries Provide Power During Blackouts!

A solar panel system supplies homes with power by capturing energy from the sun and converting it into usable electricity. If your home’s solar panel system is tied to the electric grid, the extra energy that your panels produce is fed back to the grid. But, whenever your home consumes more energy than your panels can produce – such as at night when panels cannot produce energy – your home must draw power from the grid. This means that your home will be left without power if your local utility company experiences a power disruption at night.

A solar panel backup battery from PE Solar offers the perfect solution for this problem. PE Solar offers and installs batteries that store the extra energy generated by your solar panels, allowing you to conserve solar energy for later use.

Batteries Can Increase Your Monthly Savings!

The highly effective solutions of solar power could also be the root for your lowered electric bill. Solar systems provide your home with an incredible amount of natural sunlight power —yet solar batteries may add to your solar system that you need to enhance the way you utilize energy and save even more money.  

Solar batteries allow your home to be run at maximum efficiency during both day and night hours. These batteries establish a strong source of power within your home for the energy you need throughout the night without wasting extra resources on an excessive electric bill. This backup power is an essential part of your solar system in your home.

Here's The Bottom Line - Are Solar Batteries Worth It?

Similar to a solar panel system, solar batteries add equity to your house's evaluation. If you're an investor and you see the potential return on investment, then absolutely, order them right away... However, if you're bootstrapped for cash or want the lowest monthly payment possible, a battery upgrade may not be worthwhile. Yes, they can help save you more money in the long run, but every house is different.
