Solar Panel Battery Installation
A solar panel battery helps you get the most out of the energy generated by solar panels as it stores the excess energy. This way, it reduces dependence on the national grid’s electricity by allowing you to use the stored energy at night.
However, you will need to hire professional solar battery installation services to become self-sufficient and reduce the amount of money you spend on electricity bills. The expert installers will assess your energy requirements and suggest the most suitable solar battery technology which should be installed at your property.
ECO GB Energy provides the services for solar panel battery installation. We provide trusted services for generating renewable energy and contributing towards a cleaner future. Fulfilling your unique energy requirements, we provide tailored solutions for battery installation.
Benefit from Solar Battery Storage
Solar battery storage offers you the following advantages:
- Cuts down the cost of your energy bills.
- Allows you to charge at cheaper rates and use the stored energy during peak hours.
- Stores excess energy, reducing your reliance on grid electricity.
- Enables your contribution towards a greener future.
- Reduces the consumption of fossil fuels’ generated energy.
- Requires lesser maintenance once installed properly.
Process of Our Battery Setup
The installers at ECO GB Energy install the solar panel battery in these steps:
- Specify a safe corner of your home where the battery can be installed securely.
- Look for a space which is adequately ventilated to allow easy emission of gases if the battery gets excessively heated or overcharged.
- Install the battery enclosure having high impact strength and resistance to alkaline solutions.
- Place spill containment trays under the battery to safely contain the leaks.
- Install a gas monitor for checking battery emissions.
- Secure a whiteboard to the wall for tracking the battery’s maintenance and charging.
- Connect the wires and ensure to keep the wiring short and straight.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many batteries will I have to install in my home?
The number of batteries needed in a home varies based on the power requirements. However, an average-sized household only needs one solar panel battery.
How much time is required to install solar panel batteries?
It requires 3 to 4 hours to install a battery to an existing solar panel system. On the other hand, it might take one day if solar panels and batteries both are to be installed.
How to determine the size of a solar storage battery?
Your electricity consumption in the evening and at night and the electricity generated by solar panels help determine the size of the solar storage battery. The electricity consumption of an average home ranges from 8kWh to 10kWh, and the capacity of a lithium-ion battery is between 1kWh and 16kWh.
Moreover, you should consult qualified solar battery installers to know the right size to fulfil your home’s energy requirements.
Can I add tap water to the battery?
Depending on the battery’s size, manufacturer’s instructions, and charge cycle, you need to refill the battery with distilled water after installation. Adding tap water to the battery is not suggested, as clean tap water also has contaminants which can negatively impact its operating life.
Should I connect the solar panel batteries in a series or parallel combination?
If you are installing more than one battery in your property, then you can opt to arrange them in series or parallel combinations based on your requirements, such as:
Batteries connected in a series combination enhance the system voltage.
Batteries connected in a parallel combination doubles the system capacity without voltage increase.
What are the types of solar panel batteries?
There are four major types of solar panel batteries, which include:
- Lead Acid Batteries
- Lithium Ion Batteries
- Flow Batteries
- Nickel Cadmium Batteries
However, lead acid and lithium batteries are commonly available in the UK.
