Battery Storage

Battery Storage enables you to store excess energy produced by your solar panels, so you can have electricity even when the sun is not shining

 

About the Battery
  • Our fully trained contractors will typically install a Sunsynk-W5.3 or Sunsynk-10.6 lithium battery. It is vital that the installation is undertaken by an expert to maximise the efficiency of the solar battery storage
  • Our recommended batteries weigh approximately 46kg-101kg
  • They will charge between a temperature of -10° to - 55° and discharge between -20° to -55°

 

Advantages
  • Helps you use more of the electricity you generate
  • Cuts your electric bill if you buy less from your energy supplier
  • Some energy tariffs pay you for allowing your battery to be used to store excess grid electricity
  • Could enable you to take advantage of cheap-rate electricity, for example from a smart time-of-use tariff
  • Low maintenance
  • You no longer have to pay VAT to add batteries to an existing solar PV system

 

According to MCS, the costs of solar panels have rapidly reduced in the last two years and now is the perfect time to invest in a battery to enhance the monetary saving of solar panels.

Eco Experts claim an average property can save 30% with a battery compared to one with solar-panels only. Eco Experts also state that a solar-plus-storage system can save approximately £582 and reduce the carbon footprint by 7% on an average three bedroom house https://www.theecoexperts.co.uk/solar-panels/storage-batteries
