The installation of a Battery Storage System will help you maximise the amount of renewable energy that you can use, making it a great option if you are trying to live more eco-consciously. A battery storage system will capture any energy produced and not used, storing it, ready to be used when needed rather than exporting it back to the national grid and losing out on energy generated by your solar panel system.

If your solar panel installation generates excess power, a battery storage system will store the excess power for a later time. On cloudier days, where a solar panel system may not generate enough power, you can use the energy stored in the battery. By using a suitable energy tariff, you can also plan to force charge your battery storage system through the night at a lower rate per kWh, to be used during the day at a higher rate per kWh to save money. 

By having a battery storage system installed this will bring you closer to self-sufficiency and allow you to become less reliant on traditional fossil fuels.
