the benefits of solar and battery storage
greater energy autonomy
self-consumption
Solar panels with battery storage in Burton-on-Trent allow residents to harness and store energy not immediately used during peak sunlight hours. This stored energy can be utilised in the evenings, at night, or during cloudy days, drastically reducing reliance on the national grid. This independence is crucial during power cuts or in periods of high energy costs.
increased financial savings
reduced energy bills
Using stored solar energy during times of high tariffs enables you to avoid peak energy costs, significantly reducing your electricity bills. These savings can effectively compensate for the initial costs of the solar and battery systems.
potential for revenue
You can also earn revenue by selling excess energy back to the grid through the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG), which pays you for the solar energy you export.
