While the primary function of a storage system is to provide power when sunlight is not available, hence increasing the fraction of time the photovoltaic system provides electricity, the addition of batteries has numerous other advantages which mean that the batteries can be used for multiple purposes.
Solar battery technology stores the electrical energy generated when solar panels receive excess solar energy in the hours of the most remarkable solar radiation. Not all photovoltaic installations have batteries. Sometimes, it is preferable to supply all the electrical energy generated by the solar panels to the electrical network.
The important battery parameters that affect the photovoltaic system operation and performance are the battery maintenance requirements, lifetime of the battery, available power and efficiency.
The batteries have the function of supplying electrical energy to the system at the moment when the photovoltaic panels do not generate the necessary electricity. When the solar panels can generate more electricity than the electrical system demands, all the energy demanded is supplied by the panels, and the excess is used to charge the batteries.
Batteries are a common feature in most types of PV systems that are not connected to the utility grid. In addition to providing storage, batteries can also be used for several other functions: Storage. Batteries store energy being produced by a given generating source, and when this source is unavailable this energy can be used by the load.
The types of solar batteries most used in photovoltaic installations are lead-acid batteries due to the price ratio for available energy. Its efficiency is 85-95%, while Ni-Cad is 65%. Undoubtedly the best batteries would be lithium-ion batteries, the ones used in mobiles.
