Project Description

In April 2024, the Struchens outfitted their Middletown, DE, home with a state-of-the-art solar battery system. The battery enhances the functionality and efficiency of the existing solar panel system. It stores excess solar energy generated during the day for use at night or during cloudy periods.

Integrating the solar battery installation with the home’s existing solar panels means increased energy independence. This addition is a reliable backup power source during grid outages, significantly reducing their electricity bills by utilizing stored energy.

The new battery system helps ensure the system utilizes the maximum amount of solar energy generated, minimizing waste and reliance on non-renewable energy sources. This project highlights the growing adoption of solar batteries as a critical component in residential solar solutions, offering homeowners enhanced energy security and sustainability.
