Solar batteries store
excess power.
When your energy demands exceed the energy production of your solar panels during the day, or you are using power at night when your panels are no longer generating energy, you can source 100% renewable energy stored in your solar battery to power essential appliances, like refrigerators, microwaves, and lights. In the case of a power outage, you can keep your lights on and important systems operational by sourcing power from your solar battery.
A battery storage system is ideal for reducing your reliance on the electric grid, and can help you save money on monthly electricity costs.

Your solar panels turn sunlight into clean DC (direct current) electricity.
Your solar inverter converts solar generated DC electricity into AC (Alternating Current) electricity that can power your home.
AC electricity passes through your electrical panel to power devices in your home.
Your Sonnen eco converts excess AC electricity to DC for storage in its battery modules. When you need it, the electricity is converted back to AC – day, night, or during an outrage.
A second breaker box (aka “protected loads panel”) is an additional electrical panel that distributes power to critical devices in your home in an outage from your eco.
Your meter monitors and measures electricity used by your home and excess solar power fed into the electrical grid.
Your utility keeps you connected to the local electrical gird, ensuring you have access to grid power when you need it.
