Reduce your electricity bills with battery storage solutions

---

We are all aware of how we charge batteries in everyday life and then use that stored energy later but did you know if you have solar or an economy 7 tariff you can invest in a home battery system that uses your solar generation or cheap rate electric to charge the battery? That stored energy can then be deployed into your home at a time to suit you!

If you have solar you will know that some of the energy you generate is lost to the grid by way of export - because electricity generated by your solar panels must be used as its generated (it has to "go" somewhere) - if the demand in your home is less than the panels are generating that surplus energy is exported to the grid - you may say well this doesn't matter as I'm getting paid from my FIT tariff for this export but if you think about it - the energy you are exporting you may be getting paid 5p, 10p or a bit more but when the sun goes down and your solar stops generating you then buy back (import) energy from the grid at 30p a unit (soon to be 40p)! - So you are selling YOUR generated energy to the grid at 5 or 10p then buying it back at 30 or 40P!!!

Battery Storage is the  solution! - By investing in a home battery you can store that surplus energy instead of exporting it to the grid then use it later when it suits you !

For example , lets say you have exported 10kw of energy to the grid as you have been out at work all day, that will pay you 50P - if you have a battery and store that energy you can deploy that in your home during the evening when you get back from work - by deploying that 10kw of stored energy you will NOT import that 10kw from the grid at 30p a unit thereby saving £3 on your electric bill ! The beauty is you will STILL GET PAID for your generation and export even if you use all of it in your home. So in one day you are £3.50 better off in this example - multiply that by 6 months and you can see the savings add up quickly!
