You’ve probably heard about solar batteries. Now, it’s time to know why these batteries are a game-changer in both solar and residential markets.
So the question is:
Why do I need solar batteries?
If you’re looking to hook up to free, clean, and reliable solar energy that enables you to ditch fossil fuels, solar batteries are your answer.
They are revolutionizing the way people use energy. While solar panels are popping up on rooftops or ground levels at an unprecedented rate, protecting the value of the energy they generate is being increasingly discussed.
Solar batteries are the simplest and the best way to keep solar power in-house and further put it to work during the evenings when you need it the most. With their super high cycle life, they support a higher number of complete charge or discharge cycles before the capacity falls below 80%.
Now let’s look at different types of batteries to consider:
- Flooded types
With caps to add water, these lead acid batteries are widely manufactured. They work well for many years and are reasonably priced. These heavy industrial-type batteries release gas when charged, so you shouldn’t use them indoors. You should use a venting system to release the gases if you choose to install them in an enclosure. - RV/Marine types
Suitable for very small systems, these deep-cycle batteries are primarily used for campers and boats. Although they can be used they don’t possess the capacity for continuous service for many years to come. - Gel Type
The gel-type batteries have no vents and hence don’t release gas during the charging process as opposed to the flooded types. However, they shouldn’t be confused with maintenance-free batteries. Since they don’t require venting, they can be used indoors. - AGM
The best batteries available for solar power use are Absorbed Glass Mat batteries. The electrolyte is held by the woven glass mat between plates making them leak/spillproof. They give superior performance, maintain voltage better, self-discharge slower, and last longer. For that matter, they are expensive and mostly used in hospitals, remote telephone/cell tower installations, and airplanes.
