Investing in solar batteries for your solar system can be a smart financial move for many homeowners, but the initial cost might seem daunting. Before making the investment, it's important to understand how long your solar battery will last during a power outage.
Adding battery storage to your solar system allows you to store the energy produced during the day for use at night or during blackouts. It also helps you reduce your reliance on the grid and save more on your electricity bills.
In this blog, we’ll explore how long a solar battery can power your home and which battery types are best suited for a solar system.
**What are the best batteries for a solar system?**
With rising electricity costs and decreasing prices of solar products in India, more households are turning to solar energy systems to power their homes. However, before purchasing a solar battery, it’s essential to consider your home’s energy needs, the amount of energy your solar system produces, how much you consume daily, and how much you can feed back into the grid. Doing these calculations beforehand ensures you choose the right battery that fits your specific requirements.
The capacity of a battery—the amount of energy it can store—directly affects how long it can power your home during an outage. There are three main types of solar batteries available: lithium-ion, lead-acid, and saltwater batteries.
Lithium-ion batteries are generally considered the best option for solar systems due to their efficiency, longevity, and compact design. However, they come at a higher price than other types. Lead-acid batteries, though less expensive, have a shorter lifespan. Saltwater batteries are a newer option, offering eco-friendly benefits but with limited availability.
If you're looking for competitive pricing and reliable performance, Genus Innovation offers high-quality solar batteries tailored for Indian conditions.
**How long does a solar battery last?**
The backup time of a solar battery largely depends on its storage capacity, the output of your solar system, and your household’s energy consumption during an outage.
Most solar batteries can power your home overnight when your panels aren’t generating electricity. To get a more accurate estimate, you need to know your daily energy usage, the capacity and power rating of your solar system, and the type of system you have.
Typical battery capacities range from 10 kWh to 13 kWh. For example, if your home uses 30 kWh per day, you would need three batteries to run all your appliances for a full day using only battery power. Keep in mind that most batteries don’t operate at 100% capacity and usually peak at around 90%.
So, a 10 kWh battery may only provide about 9 kWh of usable energy. However, Genus Innovation batteries offer more usable capacity compared to other brands at competitive prices.
Additionally, your solar panels typically generate power for 6–7 hours during peak sunlight. If paired with batteries, one or two units can provide enough power during the night when your panels aren’t producing electricity.
If you plan to go off-grid, it's wise to install a few days’ worth of energy storage to handle cloudy or rainy days.
In conclusion, a 10 kWh battery, when paired with a solar system, can power your home’s essential appliances for at least 24 hours, and even longer without running air conditioners or electric heaters.
