Solar panels generate electricity from sunlight during the day. A solar battery stores any electricity you don't use immediately, so you can use it in the evening or on cloudy days instead of buying it from the grid. Without a battery, any surplus energy is exported to the grid. With a battery, you keep that energy for yourself — maximising your self-sufficiency and savings. We recommend battery storage for most households, particularly those with higher evening energy usage.
