    Owning an independent house is very tempting for anyone. It has many advantages, the main one being that you are not affected by utility price fluctuations. Fortunately, given the rapid development in the world of energy storage, this is a dream that can be realized. All you need is a solar battery storage system to meet your needs.


    Solar-powered low-frequency inverter power batteries are an indispensable part of this setup because if the grid fails, solar batteries can ensure continuous power supply. This article will break down the seemingly complex operation of these storage devices into a few easy-to-understand steps. The discussion will focus on batteries already paired with a solar system, rather than standalone solar battery storage.


    When sunlight hits the panels, visible light is converted into electrical energy. The current flows into the battery and is stored as direct current (DC). For DC-coupled systems, the battery does not have a built-in inverter. Thus, the DC from the solar panels flows through a charge controller to the battery. Unlike AC setups, the power inverter in this system is only connected to your home wiring. Therefore, the electricity from the solar panels or the battery is converted from DC to AC before it flows to household appliances. What determines how much energy is stored in the battery?


    The Charging Process of a Solar-Powered Low-Frequency Inverter


    The energy flowing from the panels of low-frequency power inverter will prioritize your home's electricity settings. Therefore, the electricity directly powers your devices such as refrigerators, TVs, and lights. Typically, the energy generated by the solar panels may exceed your needs. For example, on a hot afternoon, a lot of electricity will be generated, but your house will not consume much power. In this case, net metering will occur, where the excess energy flows back to the grid. However, you can use this surplus to charge the battery.


    The amount of energy stored in the battery depends on its charging speed. For example, if your home does not consume much power, the charging process will be quick. Additionally, if you are connected to large panels, a lot of electricity will flow to your home, meaning the battery can charge faster. Once the battery is fully charged, the charge controller will prevent it from overcharging.


    If you are actively seeking the idea of having clean, free energy but do not have enough funds to invest in solar panels, you should definitely consider buying a solar generator.


    Why Do You Need Solar-Powered Low-Frequency Inverter Batteries?


    Protect You from Power Outages


    If you are connected to the grid, there will always be moments when the transmission system fails or is shut down for maintenance. Once this happens, the system will isolate your home from the grid and activate the backup power. In this case, the battery will work like a backup generator.


    Use Time-of-Use Rate Plans


    In these plans, you are charged based on the amount of electricity you use and the time you use it. Energy drawn from the grid in the evening is more valuable than the excess energy generated during the day. This way, by storing the excess energy and using it at night, you can reduce your total household electricity costs.

    FAQ

    What types of solar energy systems does Anern provide?

    Anern provides on-grid solar systems, off-grid solar systems, hybrid solar systems, and integrated solar energy storage systems that combine solar panels, inverters, lithium batteries, and system accessories.

    Can I print my logo on the product?

    As one of the leading solar equipment suppliers in China, Anern provides OEM and ODM services to meet your various needs.

    What solar applications use Anern energy storage systems?

    Anern's energy storage systems are used in the following solar applications:


    Residential Backup Power: 

    For home use during power outages, providing up to 6 hours of continuous power for average household consumption. These systems reduce grid reliance and electricity bills while storing excess solar energy.


    Commercial and Industrial Energy Management: 

    Installed in factories and businesses to store excess solar energy, reduce peak-hour grid consumption, and lower electricity costs. Systems are deployed in secure, ventilated locations for stability.


    Off-Grid Infrastructure: 

    Supports meteorological/hydrological observation equipment and other critical infrastructure in remote areas without grid coverage. Battery banks store solar energy converted via inverters for reliable operation.


    Agricultural Operations: 

    Powers farms by converting stored solar energy into AC electricity, maintaining agricultural activities during outages or grid instability.


    Large-Scale Solar Projects: 

    Used in independent photovoltaic power stations ranging from 10KW to 50MW capacity, enabled by parallel-connected hybrid inverters for solar energy conversion and storage.

    Does Anern manufacture lithium batteries for solar energy storage?

    Anern supplies lithium battery energy storage solutions designed for solar applications, including residential, commercial, and off-grid solar energy storage systems integrated with solar inverters.

    Do solar panels work on rainy days?

    Rain actually helps solar panels work more efficiently. This is because rain will wash away any dirt or dust that collects on the panels so they can absorb sunlight more efficiently. Anern's solar panels actually generate more electricity than you need during peak sunlight hours. This excess power can be used to provide additional power on  days or at night.
