According to Electronicshub, many people are now turning towards solar panels to use sustainable sources for producing energy and electricity. Solar panels are affordable, easy to install and help decrease your carbon footprint. On top of that, solar panels can also help you cut down your electricity bills.
But, many people have some confusion over how solar energy is converted into electricity or any other type of functional energy through solar panels. A lot of people also have a misconception that solar panels store energy for future use.
But, solar panels only collect energy. It does not store or convert solar energy.
Is a Solar Battery Bank Necessary?
Well, it depends on how you intend to use solar electricity.
A bank may not be necessary if you use an on-grid electricity system. On-grid homes are homes that get the usual power supply from the power grid and use solar electricity for a few hours or for a specific watt power. Some on-grid homes also use solar electricity as a power backup.
But, if you need an off-grid home system, you may need a solar battery bank. Off-grid homes usually run on solar electricity solely while using a generator as a backup. Such homes are not connected to the common electricity supply line.
In short, if you plan to use solar electricity round-the-clock, you need to invest in a solar battery bank that will store the electricity and offer you a round-the-clock supply from the panels.
A battery bank may be necessary if you use a hybrid solar grid system or a system that simultaneously uses solar energy and power grid electricity.
