System Sizing and Battery Pairing
- Why Batteries Under NEM 3.0
- Energy storage maximizes value by storing excess solar energy for use during peak
times. - Without storage, excess energy is sent to the grid at time of production for reduced
compensation.
- Energy storage maximizes value by storing excess solar energy for use during peak
- Battery Sizing Guide:
- A rule of thumb is that you want to at least always double the storage of kWh that your
system produces (2:1) worst case scenario match system size to a (1:1) - Example: A 10 kWh system may need 20 kWh of storage.
- A rule of thumb is that you want to at least always double the storage of kWh that your
- Key Customer Goal: Always aim to reduce or eliminate their electric costs. When full offset
isn’t possible, emphasize savings as a win.
