///SOLAR POWER & BATTERY SOLUTIONS FOR YOUR BUSINESS WORLD

///FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

We understand that solar power has had a mixed reputation in the past, but with advancements in technology and smarter solutions, it has become a reliable and efficient choice for businesses looking to cut costs and improve sustainability. To help, we’ve answered some of the most common questions about commercial solar energy - like how battery storage enhances performance and what happens when the sun isn’t shining. With better system integration and innovative solutions, solar power is now more practical and beneficial than ever for businesses.

WHAT IF IT'S NOT SUNNY?

Solar panels generate electricity during the day when sunlight is available. On cloudy or rainy days, solar power output may decrease, but the system can still produce some electricity. Additionally, battery storage systems help store excess energy generated during sunny periods, which can be used when the sun isn’t shining. This means that even on days with lower solar output, businesses can rely on stored energy from batteries to maintain their power supply.

HOW DOES BATTERY STORAGE WORK?

Battery storage works by storing excess electricity generated by your solar panels for later use. During peak sunlight hours, when your solar system produces more energy than needed, the excess energy is stored in batteries. Then, during periods of low sunlight or when energy demand is high, the stored power from the batteries is used to supply your business. This increases energy independence and provides resilience against fluctuating electricity prices.

HOW MUCH ENERGY CAN BE STORED?

The amount of energy a battery can store depends on the system size and type of battery used. For commercial clients, battery systems can range from small-scale setups to larger, multi-megawatt-hour systems that store significant amounts of electricity for extended periods. This allows businesses to manage energy costs more effectively and maintain operations during off-peak or low-generation periods.

WILL IT WORK WITH EV CHARGING?

Yes, solar power systems can seamlessly integrate with Electric Vehicle (EV) charging stations, providing an effective solution to the increased energy demand from EV charging. By pairing solar panels with EV chargers, businesses can generate their own clean energy to power EVs, reducing reliance on the grid and cutting energy costs. This integration not only supports sustainability goals but also helps manage energy use efficiently. We can deliver integrated EV charging solutions with our sister company SEE-V.
