On Monday, Spain and Portugal experienced nationwide Power Outages, causing issues with transportation, business, and schools. While the cause of the power outages is still unknown, the countries are working hard, with power to schools increasing as this article is being written. If this were to happen in the UK, to your home, what could you do to keep the lights on?
Introducing Battery Storage…
Battery Storage is the solution; with more than one function, it can keep your home powered through even the most severe incidents. But how does it work, and are there some things you’re missing out on? Battery storage is gaining increasing popularity and is now a key component of renewable energy systems.
Many people underutilise solar power, thinking that because they’re not home during the sunny hours, they can’t utilise it. Battery Storage allows users to store energy during the day and then use it later. This means that you can come home, cook dinner, turn on the lights, and run a shower, all using the energy saved throughout the day.
Power Outages
But why are we discussing battery storage when there’s been a power cut in Spain? Well, as Battery Storage can store unused energy, it also allows you to use that energy in an emergency. In the event of a power cut, you would manually switch over to your stored power supply, allowing your house to run for 6-10 hours (based on a 5 kw battery).
So, you know that you need Battery Storage, even for the added benefit of saving money on bills, but how do you install one? Which is the best? That’s where DMH comes in!
