energy storage systems have come a long way.

Even just a few years ago, solar energy storage systems, usually in the form of Lithium-Ion battery systems, were prohibitive and impractical for the run-of-the-mill homeowner. With the prices of these battery systems dropping, and more competition in the marketplace, installing a solar energy storage system in conjunction with your solar installation can be a smart choice. Solar energy storage systems have a litany of benefits, but most often customers hope to hedge against power outages and prevent demand surge and time-of-use pricing.

How do battery systems work?

Solar power is produced by your solar panels

Your panels will convert the solar energy from your roof or ground-mounted system into DC electric power, same as any solar system. That power will go through several steps before it is used on-site, or transferred into the grid.

THAT DC POWER IS CONVERTED TO USABLE AC POWER

Your on-site inverter will convert your solar DC power into AC power, making it possible to use on-site, charge your battery, or transfer to the grid.

POWER IS STORED IN YOUR ON SITE BATTERY

Solar power from your inverter will be fed directly into your on-site solar energy storage system until that system is full. These solar energy systems can be programmed to release power to your home at specific times or intervals as needed.

CHOOSE WHAT TO POWER WITH YOUR BATTERY

Renovus does not install off-grid systems, but solar energy storage will allow certain parts of your home to be self-sufficient in case of an outage. Customers often direct their battery power to appliances such as refrigerators or well pumps to be used in case of a grid interruption.
