How soon will I see a difference in my power bill?

My bills aren’t as low as I’d hoped, is something wrong?

If your energy bill has you concerned, there are three possible reasons:

1. Power consumption levels—Just because you’re using solar doesn’t mean you can throw caution to the wind. Moderation is key if you want to see a change in your power bill. Monitor your consumption habits and adapt accordingly for significant change.

2. Incorrect power usage—If your house is empty during the day and using more power in the evenings, your consumption levels won’t change. The solution to this problem is to install a solar battery. It’ll charge up during the day, storing solar power to use when you’re at home in the evenings.

3. The fault lies with your system—Understand your consumption levels and what your system should be able to provide. You may have purchased a solar power system that’s too small for your needs.

How many solar batteries do you need?

Every household and business has unique needs, so the optimal number of solar batteries varies. Here’s a general overview of how many you may require based on different scenarios: • If your goal is to keep the lights on when the grid goes down, you’ll likely need only one battery. • If your goal is to save as much money as possible, you’ll probably need around 2–3 batteries. • If your goal is to get off the grid entirely, you’ll probably need 8–12 batteries.

What happens when the solar batteries are fully charged?

When your battery is full, it stops absorbing energy. The solar panels continue to produce voltage, although it won’t be stored until there’s more space or when the demand increases.

You can keep your batteries connected at all times, as they include over-charge protection and other safety features.
