Frequently Asked BESS Questions

What is battery storage and how does it work with solar PV?
Battery storage systems store excess solar electricity for use later, allowing homes and businesses to maximise self-consumption and reduce grid reliance.
What are the benefits of battery storage?
Key benefits include lower energy bills, backup power during outages, and greater protection from peak-time electricity costs.
What sizes of battery storage are available?
Residential batteries typically range from 5kWh to 15kWh, while commercial systems can be scaled to hundreds of kilowatt-hours, depending on requirements. We can ensure you get the right BESS system for your needs here at The MEP Shop.
Can I add a battery to an existing solar PV system?
Yes, most modern batteries can be retrofitted to existing solar arrays. We will work with you to ensure you get the right system.
How long do solar batteries last?
Most lithium-ion batteries last 10–15 years, with warranties covering thousands of charge cycles. This is manufacturer dependent though and may vary from product to product.
Do battery storage systems qualify for incentives?
When installed with solar, battery storage may qualify for VAT relief and can help buildings meet renewable energy and net-zero standards.
