Solar Panel Battery System Installations

Plug into the sun and extend your renewable energy capacity by investing in a solar battery storage product. You can invest in a solar panel battery for your home to harvest the sun’s power during the day for use at night. 

AJ Renewables are expert solar battery installers and can connect your home battery to your existing solar panel system with efficiency and ease. We aim to promote clean ways to power your home by replacing fossil fuel energy and relying more on renewable energy sources like solar panels.

Whether it’s a solar battery installation or the installation of an entire solar PV system, including solar panels, we’ve got you covered. 

What is Solar Panel Battery Storage?

Solar panels produce direct current (DC) electricity, which is stored in batteries as chemical energy. Home appliances generally require alternating current (AC) electricity. An inverting unit is required to change the current for its intended purpose. 

Solar battery storage is a great extension to your existing renewable energy solutions as it lets you store excess energy generated when the sun is out for later use. This way, the excess is not simply sent back to the National Grid. 

With a battery system, you can use the stored energy at a lower cost instead of relying on the expensive grid electricity during peak hours. It allows you to use the sun’s power long after it has set, as the batteries discharge the stored excess energy to power your household appliances and devices. 

There are four types of solar batteries: lead-acid, flow batteries, nickel-cadmium and lithium-ion batteries. Lead-acid and lithium-ion are the two most commonly available types of batteries on the UK market. 

Benefits of Solar Battery Storage

A solar battery enhances your energy independence as you continuously rely on the solar power your home generates. With a solar battery, you essentially become your own electricity producer and supplier. This way, you increase the savings on your energy bills while decreasing your reliance on less eco-friendly electricity production.  

This energy storage product not only works with existing solar panels but can also be installed and charged with the main form of electricity used on your property. If you’re charging your battery with power from the grid, it’s best to use time-of-use electricity tariffs to charge your battery during hours when electricity is cheaper. 

Here are some other benefits you can enjoy when installing solar batteries: 

Avoid paying VAT when installing a battery to an existing system
Save money on energy bills
Promote sustainability with battery systems
Use more of the excess energy generated from your solar system
Reduce maintenance required – once installed, your battery has a set-it-and-forget-it function

FAQs About Solar Battery Storage Systems

Here are some commonly asked questions regarding our solar battery solutions.

How much money can i save with a solar battery?

Investing in solar energy storage allows you to maximise the usable capacity, and once your home is completely off the grid, you’ll start reaping the benefits of immensely reduced electricity bills. In a typical 3-bedroom home, you could potentially save around £600 per year by not buying electricity from the grid. And if you opt to sell the stored electricity to the grid, you could even increase the amount and save up to £669–£685. 

These metrics depend on the size of your battery and the overall usage levels. For the most accurate answers, contact professional installers — like AJ Renewables.

Will a solar panel battery pack work with my existing panels?

It depends. If the manufacturer of the existing solar panel system designed your solar panels to be compatible with battery systems, then yes. Certain homeowners might have had solar panels installed with the intention of adding storage products later on — these panels should be able to accommodate energy storage products. 

You can still opt for battery installation even if your existing solar PV system wasn’t installed with the intent of adding a battery. You can integrate your battery with either a DC-coupled or AC-coupled system. Our expert team at AJ Renewables will advise which system is best suited to your setup.

How many solar batteries do i need to power a house?

Most households only need one battery, but the amount of batteries you need depends on several factors. You’ll need to consider your home’s energy consumption and the output of your solar panels. You can review your monthly electricity bills and check how many kW h you spend per month. This value will help your solar battery installer recommend the most suitable battery system and size for your home.

Is getting a battery with solar panels worth it?

Solar batteries are beneficial in many ways, but whether or not they are worth it is up to you. 

If your household or business operations are at their peak during the day, investing in storage may not be as beneficial, as you’ll be using the majority of your solar energy generated. However, this also depends on the capacity of your panels and your average energy consumption. 

If you’re out during the day and more active at night, it makes more sense to opt for a battery to ensure you get the most of your generated energy. 

What should you look for when choosing a solar battery?

Optimise your renewable energy system by choosing the correct battery system for your property. Here are a few things to consider if you’re looking to install a battery system and reduce your energy bills: 

  • Battery material: Look into the pros and cons of each battery pack’s material and which one will work best for your solar energy requirements.

  • Battery lifespan: Refer to the manufacturer's specifications to determine how long it'll last. Choose the battery that'll last enough to keep up with your energy consumption. 

  • Depth of discharge: Look into the percentage of the electrical energy that can be discharged from the battery’s total power output. Lithium-ion batteries usually have DOD limits ranging from 80% to 95%.  

  • Efficiency: Depending on the power generated with your solar panels, you’ll need an efficient battery that matches the solar panel output and your energy usage.  

 

Most households only need one battery, but the amount of batteries you need depends on several factors. You’ll need to consider your home’s energy consumption and the output of your solar panels.
