Solar Battery Storage

How Solar Battery Storage Works

A home battery stores the excess electricity your solar panels generate during the day. You can then use that stored energy in the evenings, on cloudy days, or whenever your home needs extra power. It’s one of the simplest ways to get more value from your solar, and reduce how much electricity you buy from the grid.

What Makes a Complete Battery Storage System?

A modern home battery works as part of an integrated energy storage system, with components such as:

Battery New (3)
Battery Cell Unit
Stores electricity for later use.
Energy Management
Battery Management System (BMS)
Monitors production, usage, and battery levels, and automatically optimises performance.
Energy (1)
Inverter
Converts stored electricity into usable power for your home - or if set up to do so - back to the grid for credit.

Types of Batteries for Solar Energy Storage​

Choosing the right battery helps you get the most from your solar system.

  • Lithium-ion batteries – The most common choice for homes. Long-lasting, compact, and efficient.

  • Lead-acid batteries – Affordable, but bulkier and less efficient.

Switch Together only works with high-quality lithium-ion batteries, tested for safety, reliability and maximum efficiency.

Retrofit Your Existing Solar Installation with a Battery

Already have solar panels? Adding a battery to your existing system can allow you to store your excess energy and make your home even smarter. 

How retrofit works:

  • Your panels charge the battery with any surplus solar generation

  • You use more of your own clean energy instead of exporting it

  • You cut bills further, with no need to replace your existing solar setup
