A battery energy storage system (BESS) is a crucial component for conserving and utilizing electricity efficiently. It allows homeowners to save money by charging during off-peak hours and can be powered by renewable sources or the National Grid. These systems ensure energy availability during high demand or supply interruptions, making them an essential part of modern energy management.
What is a Battery Storage System?
A battery storage system is a cutting-edge technology that allows homeowners to store excess energy for later use. This system typically includes a battery, an inverter, and a control system that work together to manage your energy usage efficiently. By storing energy during off-peak hours when electricity rates are lower, you can use it during peak hours, significantly reducing your energy costs and reliance on the grid. Whether you generate energy from renewable sources like solar power or draw it from the grid, a battery storage system helps you optimize your energy usage and lower your carbon footprint.
Understand the basics of how battery storage systems work and their role in energy management.
How does this work?
Installing a battery storage system at your home is a straightforward process that can lead to substantial savings on your electricity bills. Here’s how it works:
Charge the battery during off-peak hours: The battery storage system charges itself during off-peak hours when energy rates are lower, typically at night. This allows you to take advantage of cheaper electricity prices.
Use the stored energy during peak hours: During peak hours, when electricity prices are higher, the stored energy is used to power your home. This reduces your reliance on the grid and helps you save on your energy bills.
Save on your electricity bill: By using stored energy during peak hours, you can significantly lower your electricity bills and reduce your overall energy costs.
This simple yet effective process allows you to optimize your energy usage, making your home more energy-efficient and cost-effective.

Backup Power During Outages
One of the significant benefits of a battery storage system is its ability to provide reliable backup power during outages. With a battery storage system, you can:
Keep your lights on: During a power outage, your battery storage system can provide power to your home, ensuring that your lights stay on and your essential appliances continue to run.
Power critical appliances: You can prioritize which appliances to power during an outage, ensuring that critical systems like refrigeration and medical equipment remain operational.
Stay safe and comfortable: With a battery storage system, you can maintain safety and comfort during an outage, without the need for noisy generators or candles.
By investing in a battery storage system, you can enjoy the benefits of energy independence, reduced energy costs, and a reliable backup power source during outages. This not only enhances your home’s resilience but also provides peace of mind knowing that you are prepared for any unexpected power disruptions.
Do I need an inverter for my battery even though I don’t have panels?
Yes, you will need an inverter to be able to charge and use the stored power.

“We had a great experience with CRG…”
“We had a great experience with CRG installing our solar panels and battery. Pre-install I had quite a few questions and they were always answered quickly and in an easy to understand way. During the installation the team discovered that it wasn’t going to be as straightforward as they initially thought due to the strange layout of our house and the location of the electrical fuse box etc but they did a great job of working out a route for the cabling that caused the least disruption. Since the install I’ve had another couple of questions about configuring the system and again, I got a quick and helpful response.”

“A pleasure to deal with.”
“From the initial survey till completion of the installation I have been most impressed. There was no hard sell, everything was explained clearly. Once I had accepted the lead date was just a matter of weeks. The actual installation was completed very efficiently. The backup support is second to none. l can't recommend Frank, Melissa and the team more highly for the whole experience.”
Paul Wickenden
“Very impressed”
“Frank came out to measure and quote for solar panels. He was professionally and quick with his quote. We did not feel rushed or pressured into purchasing at all.
Timescales were accurate and their communication was speedy and sincere.
Installation was brilliant. You could tell the installers knew exactly what they were doing.
Warning- The app to see your solar usage and generation is addictive!”
