Solar batteries. Are you ready for stored free
electricity?
Tap into the transformative power of elite energies solar energy batteries.
Elite Energies are industry leaders in the Irish solar energy market. So it should come as no surprise to learn that we supply and install premium solar energy batteries from world industry leaders.
Our high-quality solar batteries enable cost savings on your electricity expenses.
Benefits of solar battery storage
- Energy independence: Store solar energy for use during night and daytime.
- Reduced electricity bills: Use stored energy during peak hours to lower utility costs.
- Grid stability: Help balance the grid by storing excess energy and releasing it when demand is high.
- 24/7 power: Enjoy a continuous supply of electricity, day or night, rain or shine.
- Eco-friendly: Decrease your reliance on fossil fuels and reduce your carbon footprint.
- Enhanced safety: Modern solar batteries include advanced safety features to prevent overcharging or overheating.
Engineered to withstand the challenging Irish climate. Durable construction and advanced safety features.
Modern solar batteries are designed with high ingress protection (IP) ratings, such as IP65 or higher, which ensures they are fully sealed against dust and resistant to powerful water jets, protecting the internal components from heavy rain and moisture.
This robust exterior is complemented by a sophisticated Battery Management System (BMS). The BMS is a critical safety feature that continuously monitors the battery’s health, preventing common issues like overcharging, over-discharging, and overheating. This not only extends the battery’s lifespan but also mitigates potential fire risks, providing a secure and reliable energy storage solution for any home.
Free electricity from photovoltaic solar panels. Smart!
When we consider financial savings to be had producing & storing free electricity, while also playing a role in the reduction of carbon emissions, installing PV panels in your home makes perfect sense.
Learn how solar PV works in your home.
Solar PV Panels
PV panels function by absorbing daylight and using it to create free electricity. Currents created by all of the panels combined adds up to enough electricity to help power your home.
System Shunt
A solar PV system shunt is a safety mechanism that functions as a circuit breaker. It provides a means to disconnect your electricity supply during an emergency, ensuring safety for you and your home.
Power inverter
The raw energy that is generated from the panels is referred to as DC or direct current. The inverter converts DC into AC electricity (alternating current) for storage and use around your home.
Distribution Board
Your solar panel system is connected directly to your homes distribution (fuse board). Simply put, this is a control panel center for the entire electrical system of the home or business.
Power Diverter
The Eddi is a smart device that channels surplus solar electricity to your immersion heater, ensuring you use every bit of your free energy to heat water instead of exporting it to the grid.
Battery Storage
Highly advanced batteries retain the free electricity sent from your power Inverter. Here it is stored for later use. This eliminates renewable electricity from being exported back to the grid.
Monitoring
Solar PV phone and computer applications provide you with real time information and historical data allowing you to understand your generation from your panels and how it is used in your building.
Car Chargers
Optional. The EV charger is a smart, eco-friendly solution for electric vehicles.
Solar pv panels and some faqs
How do solar batteries work in Ireland's climate?
Solar batteries store excess energy generated by your solar panels during the day, so you can use it at night or on cloudy days.
Are there grants available for solar batteries in Ireland?
Currently, there are no standalone grants specifically for solar batteries from the SEAI.
What size solar battery do I need for my home?
The ideal size depends on your household’s energy usage.
Can I use a solar battery to save money on my electricity bill?
Yes. A solar battery allows you to reduce your reliance on the grid and avoid buying expensive electricity, especially during peak hours.
How long do solar batteries last?
The lifespan of a solar battery is typically measured in cycles (charge and discharge).
Do solar batteries require much maintenance?
Modern solar batteries, particularly lithium-ion ones, are designed to be largely maintenance-free. They are equipped with a sophisticated Battery Management System (BMS) that handles most of the work, protecting the battery from issues like overcharging or overheating.
