Battery Storage For Solar PV
It is quite possible that in 5-10 years the majority of houses with Solar PV panels will have battery storage also. A battery captures any unused solar power generated during the day, to be used later at night, on days with low sunlight or where extra power is required to power a heavy consumer of electricity in the home. Getting battery
