Shopping for a solar battery (or any energy-related product) can be confusing. There are a ton of different specs and metrics, and it&#;s often hard to tell which options make sense for your home.
Here are some of the most common questions we get about solar batteries, and our answers:
Are Batteries for Solar Worth It?
Solar batteries are a smart investment for most solar energy users, especially those who want to go off the grid. They are recommended for residential energy storage, DIY solar projects, and many other uses.
You can use your solar batteries to store the extra energy your system generates during the day. That way, it&#;s there when you need it at night or on cloudy days. Your batteries will also come in handy during power outages.
Storage systems for solar are an energy-efficient source of backup power for many people. However, they tend to pay off more in the long run &#; in the short run, a propane or natural gas generator may be cheaper.

How do battery storage systems work with solar panels??
You can install battery storage right alongside your solar panel system to store any excess energy produced. Then when your panels aren&#;t producing energy, such as at night or on days with less-sunny weather, you can use the energy stored in the battery instead. You may need to buy an inverter to convert the stored DC power in the batteries to the AC power you need for your home.
Not all residential solar panel arrays require battery storage. However, we often recommend them for homeowners depending on their energy needs and goals. In most cases, we recommend storage for reliable backup power protection in an outage.
A battery storage system can also reduce your carbon footprint, lower your utility bills, and even help you go off-grid, depending on the battery storage system chosen for your installation..
Batteries self-discharge over time, meaning the energy will deplete a little bit each month if it is not used. Newer batteries may deplete 1-2% per month, while older batteries may deplete the same amount over the course of a week. You may need to take self-discharging into account if you plan to store energy for long periods of time.
How Long Do Battery Storage Systems Last?
A fully charged solar battery should be able to power a home for 12 to 24 hours on average. Typically, a solar battery will last up to 15 years and most manufacturers offer a 10 year warranty.
Factors like the capacity of your battery system, your household&#;s energy consumption, and whether or not you are connected to an electrical grid affect how long your solar battery can provide continuous power. You can help your solar battery last longer with proper maintenance and protection from extreme weather conditions, including extreme temperatures. For that reason we always recommend having the batteries installed in the garage, but if they have to be outdoors, keeping them out of direct sunlight is best.
