1) Understanding Battery Storage

Battery storage systems in Blackpool and the North West allow you to store excess electricity generated from various sources, such as solar panels or off-peak grid electricity, for later use. Unknown to many customers you can implement battery storage solutions independently without the use of solar panels.

2) Benefits of Standalone Battery Storage

Having a battery storage system alone provides flexibility in managing your electricity consumption. With cheaper tariffs available during off-peak hours, like those offered by Octopus, you can store electricity at night when rates are lower and utilise it during peak hours, effectively reducing your energy bills. By strategically storing electricity during off-peak times, you optimise your consumption patterns and make the most of cost-efficient energy usage.

3) Battery Storage with Solar PV Panels

Integrating battery storage with solar PV panels maximises the efficiency of your renewable energy system. While solar panels generate electricity during daylight hours, excess energy can be stored in batteries for use when demand is high or when sunlight is unavailable. This ensures that no generated electricity goes to waste, allowing you to harness solar energy even during nighttime or cloudy days.

Along with becoming energy independent any surplus electricity produced by solar panels and stored within your battery can be sold back to the grid, providing you with the option to earn from your solar and battery system. This combination of solar panels and battery storage not only saves money but also offers opportunities to earn from excess energy generation.
