Store Energy with PosiGen Solar Panel Batteries*

What happens when your solar panels produce more energy than you can use? Typically, that energy gets fed into the grid and you receive credits for later use. With PosiGen solar batteries, the energy you don't immediately use is stored for when you need it most. Keep your house up and running even when it’s cloudy or during a grid outage with a solar battery.

*Available in select markets. Talk to your PosiGen sales representative for full offerings in your area.

Why PosiGen Solar Storage?

Power During an Outage

In the U.S., there are 1 billion power outages a year. Using a solar battery to store the excess energy your solar panels produce is not only a smart, efficient way to reduce your energy costs but is also a reliable way to keep your lights on even when the grid goes dark.

Maximize Energy Savings

A solar battery allows you to simultaneously power your home and send excess energy to the utility company (where applicable) to earn credits. You can reduce your reliance on and lower your energy costs even more with a solar battery.

System Compatibility

PosiGen is a trusted installer with the country's top battery brands. Solar batteries can be a great fit with your new panels. Not to mention, batteries are compatible with other energy-efficient technologies such as hot water heater controllers, future-proofing your home.

Save Even More with a Solar Battery

By storing excess energy produced during peak sunlight hours, you can use your own clean energy during times when your panels aren't producing, like at night or on cloudy days. This means you'll buy less electricity from the grid and see significant savings on your monthly bill.

How Solar Panel Batteries Work

Panels Collect Sunlight

Your PosiGen-installed solar panels generate electricity throughout the day. Even when it's cloudy, the panels can still operate at 25% capacity. This clean, sustainable energy reduces dependency on less environmentally-friendly power sources such as natural gas, coal, or crude oil.

Sunlight is Converted to Usable Energy

Solar panels generate Direct Current (DC) electricity, which isn't compatible with household appliances. Your solar panel system uses an inverter to convert this DC electricity into Alternating Current (AC), the type of electricity used in homes. This AC power can then run your appliances and electronics efficiently.

Energy is Stored in Solar Batteries

When your solar panels generate more electricity than you need, the extra energy goes into your battery instead of being wasted. Later, when your panels aren't producing electricity (like at night or on cloudy days), your home can use the stored energy from the battery. This smart system helps you use more of your own solar power throughout the day and night. By relying less on the power grid with a battery, you’ll lower your energy bills even more.

FAQ

What are the benefits of installing solar with battery storage?

Adding a battery to your solar system is like giving your home a power boost. You'll be able to use the extra energy your panels produce even when the sun goes down and you’ll have your own backup power supply when there's an outage in your area. By using more of the energy produced by your panels, you’ll rely even less on the grid and see extra savings.

What size solar battery do I need for my home?

The right battery size depends on your home's energy use and what you want to power during outages. Most homes do well with a 10-20 kWh battery–enough to keep your essential appliances running.

How long do solar batteries last?

Solar batteries typically have a lifespan of 5 to 15 years, depending on the type and how they're used. Like the battery in your smartphone or laptop, a solar battery's capacity to store energy gradually decreases over time. This is normal and doesn't mean the battery stops working–it just holds less energy as it ages.

Customers Saving Big with PosiGen

"I was very interested in [solar] because I knew solar panels were going to help me, and this is futuristic. I’m saving money. I did not expect the additional upgrades. We were told that certain things would be done but this is — to me — beyond the call of duty and I’m very appreciative of it because I know it will add to the savings."

Rosalind C.

"[What] I’m saving on my energy is my vacation money. My wife can go shopping a little bit more, we can go and do a little other things. I can do a little bit more things around the house, I can help my daughter out [too]. It almost helps you get financial freedom. It also helps our city, our climate, everything that’s trying to go green in order to help our atmosphere, our planet."

Kevin H.

"Without the leasing program, I probably would not have gotten any solar panels. I should be able to see a direct savings on my bill…and the energy efficiency added to it is really good too. So you cut back on your energy and you save some money."
