How Solar Battery Storage Works

Four simple steps to energy independence

Step 1

Solar Panels Generate

Your solar panels convert sunlight into electricity throughout the day, even in Scottish weather.

Step 2

Battery Stores Excess

Instead of exporting surplus energy at 4p/kWh, your battery stores it for later use.

Step 3

Power Your Home

Use stored energy in the evening when electricity costs 24-30p/kWh, saving you money.

Step 4

Smart Tariff Optimisation

Compatible with Octopus Flux, Go, and Economy 7 for maximum savings through intelligent charging.
