Battery

Solar panel
  • Batteries are an energy storage technology that uses chemicals to absorb and release energy on demand. Lithium-ion is the most common battery chemistry used to store electricity.
  • Coupling batteries with renewable energy generation allows that energy to be stored during times of low demand and released (or dispatched) at times of peak demand.
  • Battery is the brightest development for the future of renewavle energy and the use of batteries for renewable energy is expected to increase over the coming years.
