A solar energy storage system stores electricity generated by solar panels and uses it when sunlight is low, grid power is expensive or backup power is needed. The system works best when solar panels, batteries and inverters are selected as one complete solution.

Solar panels generate power

Solar panels convert sunlight into DC electricity. The generation capacity depends on panel power, sunlight hours, orientation, shading and installation quality.

Batteries store usable energy

The battery stores excess solar energy for evening use, emergency backup or off-grid operation. LiFePO4 batteries are often selected for cycle life and safety.

Inverters control power conversion

An inverter converts DC power into AC power for household or commercial loads. The inverter should match the battery voltage, solar input and load requirements.
