Solar power has become more affordable, accessible, and popular in the United States than ever. At JB Battery, we are always looking for new ideas and innovative technologies that can help us solve our customers' problems. Battery energy storage is one such technology.
What are battery energy storage systems?
Battery energy storage systems are rechargeable battery systems that store energy from the solar system and provide that energy to a home or business. Due to their advanced technology, battery energy storage systems store excess energy produced by solar panels, power your home or business off the grid, and provide emergency backup power when needed.
How do they work?
Battery Integrated Energy Storage System work by converting the DC power your solar panels produce and storing it as AC power for later use. The larger the battery capacity, the larger the solar system it can charge.
Ultimately, solar batteries do the following:
Collect: During the day, the battery storage system is charged with clean electricity generated by solar energy.
Optimize: Smart battery software uses algorithms to coordinate solar production, usage history, utility rate structures, and weather patterns to optimize when stored energy is used.
Download: Power is discharged from the battery storage system during times of high usage, reducing or eliminating costly demand charges.
When you install a solar battery as part of your solar panel system, you can store excess solar electricity instead of feeding it back into the grid. If the solar panels produce more electricity than is used or needed, the excess power goes to charging the battery. Electricity will only return to the grid when the battery is fully charged, and electricity will only be drawn from the grid when the battery is depleted.
What is the lifespan of solar batteries?
The general range of useful life of a solar battery is 5 to 15 years. However, proper maintenance can also have a major effect on the life of your solar battery. Solar batteries are significantly affected by temperature, so protecting your battery from extreme temperatures can increase its lifespan.
What are the different types of solar batteries?
Batteries used in residential energy storage are typically made from one of the following chemical compositions: lead acid or lithium ion. Lithium-ion batteries are often considered the best option for a solar panel system, although other types of batteries may be more affordable.
Lead acid batteries have a relatively short lifespan and a lower depth of discharge (DoD)* than other battery types, and are also one of the least expensive options on the market today. For homeowners who want to go off the grid and need to install a large amount of energy storage, lead acid may be a good option.
Lithium-ion batteries are lighter and more compact than lead acid batteries. They also have a higher DoD and longer lifespan compared to lead acid batteries. However, lithium-ion batteries are more expensive than lead-acid batteries.
*DoD indicates the percentage of the battery that has been discharged in relation to the total battery capacity. For example, if you have a Tesla Powerwall that contains 13.5 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity and discharges 13 kWh, the DoD is approximately 96 percent. The more frequently a battery is charged and discharged, the shorter its useful life. Many battery manufacturers specify a recommended maximum DoD for optimal performance.
