Battery storage is a smart way to offset electricity costs and maximise solar energy usage and minimise reliance on the grid. Solar Batteries store the power produced by the solar panels so the energy can be used in the evening when the sun goes down.

In most New Zealand homes, a large proportion of the energy produced by solar power panels is sent back to the grid due to surplus production during daylight hours. Adding home battery storage to a new or existing solar power system allows for the storage of unused energy for later use, such as during the night, on days with low sunlight, when utility rates are higher, or in the event of a blackout.

Rheem’s Solar Battery Storage and Monitoring System is a complete solution that is designed to help maximise the efficiency of a solar system while providing real-time monitoring capabilities. Plus, the intuitive monitoring systems allow users to keep track of energy usage, monitor performance, and ensure that the system always runs optimally.
