Technical FAQs 4

Can solar energy storage systems improve self-consumption and self-sufficiency?

As energy storage systems are typically not installed with residential solar photovoltaic (PV) systems, any “excess” solar energy exceeding the house load remains unharvested or is exported to the grid. This paper introduces an approach towards a system design for improved PV self-consumption and self-sufficiency.

Why is solar storage important?

Solar storage is important because it allows solar energy to contribute to the electricity supply even when the sun isn’t shining. It also helps smooth out variations in solar energy flow on the grid, which are caused by changes in sunlight.

What is energy storage?

Energy storage is a system that can help more effectively integrate solar into the energy landscape. Sometimes it is co-located with, or placed next to, a solar energy system, and sometimes the storage system stands alone.

Can solar energy be used for energy storage?

Solar power can be used to create new fuels that can be stored and later used to provide energy. Existing compressed air energy storage systems often use the released air as part of a natural gas power cycle to produce electricity.
