Solar Battery Storage Systems by JDZ Solar
A New Age for Batteries
Many people are considering Solar Battery Storage Systems for both new and existing solar power systems.
The battery adds extra capability in allowing unused power to be stored for use when the sun is not shining, further reducing power bills. There is also the potential to sell stored power back to the grid for profit - read further to learn how you can do this or call us on 02 6622 4397 today.
The continuous increases in electricity prices have made supplementation with solar battery storage systems a must for many homes and businesses.
Government Rebates are readily available to help fund the purchase of solar panels, making it much more accessible than ever before. With grid-connected solar panel systems, there is even the added benefit of being able to sell power back to the grid, further benefiting the power equation.
Recently, however, power companies have reduced the rates of payment for power that is sold back to them, since the feed-in or solar export tariffs are being reduced. This means that less benefit is gained from your solar power generation system - but there is another way to capitalise on the greenest form of energy!
Solar battery storage power has become more attractive with the reduction in price of batteries and their improved safety record for commercial and domestic use.
Stable, efficient battery units are now available for use as battery storage for home and commercial solar systems. Simply adding a battery to the system, allows for storage of any excess power generated that is not immediately used. This backup power can then be used to supplement at peak times or provide energy at night or when sunlight levels are low or reduced.
In conjunction with your home solar panels, a home solar battery storage system can enhance your energy independence. A solar system with battery backup is able to capture unused solar power that is generated but not used at the time it is made. This makes the solar system less dependent on energy from the grid since the home battery has power reserves for use when needed. It also helps cut power bills further and reduce dependence on energy companies.
Existing Systems:
Solar Battery Storage Systems can be added to your existing solar panel system as a retrofit, to expand your current configuration.
New Installations:
Many people are considering installing a complete system of solar panels plus battery storage, to capitalise on the additional capability that batteries provide from their first day of operation.

Create your own Solar Virtual Power Plant
An exciting new development is the facility to turn your solar system into a Virtual Power Plant, or VPP.
This means that you have the additional option to connect your batteries to the grid, allowing you to sell your stored power back to the power company for use by others. It also means that the power company can charge your battery when it has excess power that is not required elsewhere by the grid, effectively making your battery a mini-power plant!
Your battery becomes your power asset, which is effectively rented by the energy company to allow them to store and use excess power. Since your battery can be charged by them at no cost to you, this can be very profitable when you sell the energy back to them. At the same time, this principle facilitates the efficient storage and distribution of energy in your region.
This opportunity is now available to all solar power generators, both business and home solar users, where previously it has only been a commercial power plant operation.
