Answering The Most Common Questions About Solar Batteries
While solar panels can lower your energy consumption, they don’t usually store the excess energy you create for later use. Unless, that is, you invest in a solar battery system for your home. This piece of equipment allows you to save and store surplus energy your solar panels have harnessed. Whenever there’s a reduced panel output or a power outage, you can rely on the stored energy from the battery.
In this blog, solar panel company Green Air Heating and Air Conditioning, Inc. answers the most common questions about solar batteries.
What Does A Solar Battery Look Like?
A solar battery or solar battery storage system used for residential purposes is like a small refrigerator or water heater. In commercial applications, the size of the equipment can range from a large refrigerator to a shipping container measuring 20 feet in length.
How Long Does A Solar Battery Last?
The life of a solar battery depends on the type of technology used. On average, its serviceable life ranges between five to 15 years. Install one today and you’ll be replacing it at least once over the entire lifespan of your solar panels. Fortunately, recent innovations paved the way for solar batteries that perform better and have longer lifespans than their predecessors.
What Types Of Solar Batteries Are Available In The Market Today?
Options for household energy storage include lead-acid and lithium-ion batteries. Nickel-cadmium and nickel-metal hydride tend to be more costly but can still offer value depending on how much energy you want to store.
How Long Can It Power A Home?
The capability of the solar battery to power your household depends on several factors, including your home’s daily total energy consumption, the capacity and power rating of the equipment itself, the loads it can support, and whether you are connected to the grid or not. When buying one, make sure it is properly sized to provide electricity to your home for multiple days, even when the sun isn’t out.

Customer Testimonials
Our clients love the energy solutions we provide!
Nick is very well educated on the products industry. He has been in the industry for years now and knows more than anyone else I have spoken to. Its very refreshing to have the owner of the company come out to talk to you about your options compared to a door to door sales guy who cant even answer the most basic questions. Im very happy with the service and attention to detail.

These guys actually know what they are doing and do what they say they are going to do. They are capable in many areas including installing solar panels, Tesla batteries and also HVAC. They complete the whole job with their own employees rather than using outside contractors. We were really pleased with the results on three separate jobs. Thanks.

Nick and Green Air installed our Solar One year ago, it has exceeded its projected output and works great! The work was started and completed on time and Green Air completed all the extra work such as getting permits from the city of Benicia. Green Air employees cleaned up their work site daily and they were a pleasure to work with. I love the fact that we have shrunk our carbon footprint.

Our solar was installed on our house earlier this year. I found Nick and Green Air to be extremely professional, responsive to questions and started and completed the job on time. Nick has a very strong work ethic and was competitive in his pricing as compared to other companies. It’s also nice to know that PG & E is now my customer!
