How solar energy is stored

The sun is the biggest source of energy. Plants have used its power as a source of energy for millennia. Solar energy systems are a big part of Australia due to its great weather and exposure to the sun . Have a look at our brief introduction to how a solar energy system provides energy to your home.

• A typical solar energy system includes solar energy panels, an inverter, equipment to mount the panels on your roof and a monitor that tracks production of electricity.
• Solar panels collect solar energy and convert it to electricity.
• Inverters convert the electricity into a form that can be used at home.
• Solar batteries store electricity that can be used to power your home.
• If your system has spare capacity, the excess electricity is fed back into the power grid. Most solar energy companies would then credit the energy you produce. This can be used to reduce your power bill if you draw power from the grid.
