What Is a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS)?
A BESS stores electricity for later use. When connected to solar panels, it stores excess daytime production for nighttime use. During a grid outage, the battery can automatically provide backup power to designated circuits or even your entire home, depending on system size.
- Store excess solar energy for use after sunset.
- Provide backup power during outages.
- Reduce peak energy usage and improve energy management.
