What is Home Battery Storage
Home battery storage is energy stored in a battery that is mounted directly on the home or building. The energy stored in the battery is used to minimize grid power usage. When used with solar, the battery is charged by solar. The home uses electricity from solar, then the battery, and lastly the grid if needed.
When Kingdom Solar is hired to install a battery, an assessment of the home is taken, placement is determined, and the structure is evaluated. Kingdom Solar is a Certified LG Chem RESU10H battery installer.
The Process
You will be given the option to add a back-up load panel. This enables a few circuits, such as lights/refrigerator/router/microwave, to receive power in the case of a power outage.
Timeframe
Project is completed after the building department reviews the plans and issues the permit. Timeline depends on the jurisdictional requirements.
