Maximise your return for you grid tied solar PV system without expensive batteries
Discover how Virtual Solar Battery transforms your grid-tied home solar system into a smarter, more efficient powerhouse. We help you use your existing appliances like hot water cylinders and fridges to store and manage excess solar energy, maximising your self-consumption and reducing reliance on the grid – all from right here in Aotearoa.
Our smart energy solutions
At Virtual Solar Battery, we provide semi-customised automated systems that maximise your return on your grid tied battery-less solar PV installation.
Thermal Storage
Batteries store energy chemically. But they are expensive, with limited life.
But homes have zero cost alternative energy storage in the form of:
- Hot water cylinders
- Fridge/freezers
- Spas
These devices can storage energy thermally (heat / cold)
Simple Concept
The concept is simple.
Supply the energy generated by your solar PV system to these thermal storage devices during the day.
Turn off the electrical supply during the night to these devices.
They are then storing the thermal energy inputted to them during the day.
Doing this increases the amount energy you can draw from your solar PV and decreases the amount of power you have to draw from the grid.
That makes your PV installation save you more money
