Home Battery Storage

Home Battery Storage for North East Homes - Store your electricity and use it when you need it

Solar panels can generate electricity during the day, but your household may not always use that electricity at the same time.

Home battery storage provides a way to store electricity for use later. For homeowners with solar PV, this can help make better use of the electricity their system generates rather than using all of it immediately.

SmartVolt Solutions provides home battery storage solutions for properties across Durham and the wider North East.

How does home battery storage work?

A home battery stores electricity so it can be used at another time.

For a home with solar panels, electricity generated during daylight hours can be used by the property, with surplus electricity potentially stored in the battery. That stored energy can then be available when your solar system is producing less electricity.

The exact benefits and suitability of battery storage depend on your home, your existing system and how you use electricity.

That is why we look at the bigger picture before recommending a battery.

Battery storage for existing solar systems

You do not necessarily need to be installing a new solar PV system to consider battery storage.

If you already have solar panels, adding a home battery may be an option depending on your existing equipment and installation.

We can look at your current system and discuss the available options with you.

If you are installing solar for the first time, we can also consider battery storage as part of the initial system design.

A complete home energy solution

Battery storage can also form part of a wider home energy system.

For example, a household may have solar panels generating electricity, a battery storing energy and an EV charger providing a convenient way to charge an electric vehicle at home.

These technologies can work together, but the right combination depends on the individual property and how the household uses energy.

At SmartVolt Solutions, we look at your requirements as a whole rather than recommending equipment simply because it is available.
