They store the electricity generated by the solar panels for use when the panels are not producing power, such as during the night or on cloudy days. There are three main types of solar batteries: AGM VRLA Batteries, Deep Cycle Gel Batteries, and Lithium-Ion Batteries.
Each type of solar battery has its own advantages and is suitable for different applications. The choice of battery depends on the specific needs and constraints of the solar energy system. By understanding the differences between these types of batteries, customers can make informed decisions about the best solar solution for their needs.
AGM VRLA Batteries (Absorbent Glass Mat Valve Regulated Lead Acid) are a type of lead-acid battery in which the electrolyte is absorbed into a fiberglass mat. This makes them spill-proof and maintenance-free. AGM VRLA batteries are known for their high efficiency, long lifespan, and ability to deliver high currents. They are ideal for systems that require frequent and deep discharges.
Deep Cycle Gel Batteries are another type of lead-acid battery, but they use a gel electrolyte instead of a liquid. This makes them leak-proof and resistant to vibration, extreme temperatures, and over-discharge. Deep Cycle Gel Batteries are known for their slow discharge rates and deep discharge recovery. They are ideal for systems that require steady, reliable power over a longer period.
Lithium-Ion Batteries are a type of rechargeable battery that uses lithium ions as the primary component of its electrolyte. They have a high energy density, small footprint, and long lifespan. Lithium-Ion Batteries are lightweight and compact, making them ideal for residential solar systems. They also have a high depth of discharge and a fast recharge rate, making them suitable for systems with high energy demands.
