Maintain Power During Outages with ROCKSOLAR Battery Storage

In an era where power outages are becoming increasingly frequent due to extreme weather conditions, having a dependable backup power solution is more crucial than ever, particularly for homeowners. A prolonged outage during the winter months can significantly disrupt daily life.

The Role of Solar Battery Storage as a Backup

Solar battery storage stands out as one of the most efficient backup solutions for your home. Equipped with the right combination of ROCKSOLAR solar panels and battery storage systems, not only can you keep your essential appliances running during blackouts, but you can also enjoy the myriad financial and environmental benefits that solar technology brings.

How Solar Panels and Batteries Work During Outages

Typically, residential solar panels are grid-tied, meaning they connect directly to the main electric grid. This setup allows homeowners to utilize grid power when solar panels aren't producing energy, such as during the night. However, it also means that in the event of a grid failure, your solar system will automatically shut down to ensure the safety of utility workers repairing the lines.

Enabling Continuous Operation with ROCKSOLAR Batteries

To keep your solar panels operational during an outage, integrating a ROCKSOLAR battery is essential. These batteries provide a destination for the excess power generated by your solar panels, allowing them to function independently of the grid. When an outage occurs, the battery system detects it and isolates itself from the grid (a process known as islanding).

With islanding activated, your solar panels can continue to charge the battery during daylight. At night, or during prolonged periods without sunlight, the stored energy in your battery keeps critical devices like refrigerators and medical equipment running.

Choosing the Right Solar Battery System

The effectiveness of your solar battery backup depends on several factors:

• Battery Capacity: Larger batteries can store more energy, providing longer backup duration.

• Number of Batteries: More batteries mean more available backup power.

• Inverter Capacity: Some appliances require a lot of power to start. A robust inverter is necessary to handle such loads.

Options for Backup: Whole Home vs. Essential Loads

You can opt for a whole-home backup, which requires multiple batteries and a high-capacity inverter, or a partial-home backup, which focuses on keeping essential systems running. Essential systems typically include lighting, refrigeration, WiFi, and charging stations for devices.
