Battery storage is a growing trend in the UK, as more and more people are looking for ways to reduce their reliance on the grid and save money on their energy bills. Battery storage can be used to store excess solar energy, so that it can be used when it is needed, such as at night or during power outages. But this doesn’t mean you have to have solar panels to benefit from a battery.  It can also be used to store energy from the grid, so that it can be used when electricity prices are lower.

Benefits of Battery Storage

There are many benefits to battery storage, including:

• Reduced reliance on the grid: Battery storage can help you to reduce your reliance on the grid, which can save you money on your energy bills.
