For example, the coupling of an S battery with an S-PV system (4.72 kW p) is expected to boost self-sufficiency by approx. 16–17 percentage points (hereinafter pp) for HH1a and HH1b, compared to 23 pp for HH2a and HH2b, whereas an XL battery combined with an XL-PV can push self-sufficiency from 35% to 88% (HH2b).
Lithium-Ion—batteries are relatively new to PV systems, and the price for them is still high. They are low maintenance and can handle high energy with fast recharging. Lead Acid—One of the least expensive rechargeable batteries for PV. They can handle high specific power but take a long while to recharge.
In Ref. [120], the optimal planning of PV and battery was examined for three types of batteries known as lead-acid, lithium-iron-phosphate, and lithium-nickel-manganese-cobalt. The results of their study showed that the lithium-iron-phosphate has the best economic results for GCRS if the consumer use 6 kW solar PV and a load demand
EDF Energy sells batteries starting from £5,995 (or £3,468 if you buy it at the same time as solar panels). It fits lithium-ion GivEnergy-branded battery storage systems. E.on Next will fit batteries to existing solar PV systems or as part of an E.on solar
