Home energy storage systems: save 50%+ on your electricity bill and say goodbye to blackout anxiety, it's worth it!
In today's era of rising energy costs and frequent power outages due to extreme weather, home energy storage systems
are becoming the new favourite for home energy management. Not only can it help you save more than 50 per cent on
your electricity bill, but it can also get rid of blackout anxiety and provide your family with stable and reliable power protection.
In this article, we will reveal the many advantages of home energy storage systems, so you can understand why it is worth your investment.
I. Save 50%+ on your electricity bill: How to achieve it?
1. Reducing peaks and filling valleys
Many regions have a peak and valley pricing policy, which means that electricity prices are higher during peak periods
and lower during trough periods. Domestic energy storage systems can store electricity during low tariffs and release it
during peak hours, thus reducing electricity consumption during peak hours and effectively lowering electricity bills.
For example, research in Germany shows that a 2kW photovoltaic system with a 2kWh storage battery can reduce
grid electricity costs by 64%.
2. Self-generation and self-consumption
If you install a PV storage system, excess electricity generated by solar panels during the day can be stored and used
at night or on cloudy days, reducing reliance on the grid. This not only saves on electricity bills, but also increases the
self-sufficiency of energy.
3. Intelligent Energy Management
Some advanced home energy storage systems are equipped with intelligent management systems that can automatically
adjust the charging and discharging strategies according to the household's electricity consumption habits and fluctuations
in electricity prices. For example, Huabao New Energy's Jackery Navi 2000 system realises the optimised management of the
whole chain of power generation, storage and consumption through intelligent EMS, BMS and other technologies, which further
improves energy utilisation efficiency and reduces electricity bills.
II. Get rid of power outage anxiety once and for all
1. Emergency power supply guarantee
In the event of a power outage, the home energy storage system can immediately switch to emergency power mode to provide
power support for the basic power-using equipment in the home. For example, Hinen's Pro 15 Energy Storage All-in-One can be
used as an emergency power source to support the basic electricity needs of a villa for at least one day during a power outage.
2. Stable power supply
An energy storage system not only provides power during a blackout, but also stabilises the home's power supply with the stored
power when the grid is unstable. This is especially important for some electrical equipment with high power quality requirements,
such as computers and refrigerators.
III. Advantages of home energy storage system
1. Environmental protection and energy saving
Home energy storage systems are usually used in conjunction with clean energy sources such as solar energy, which reduces
reliance on traditional fossil energy sources, lowers carbon emissions and helps protect the environment.
2. Enhance Energy Independence
With the installation of an energy storage system, you can achieve a certain degree of energy self-sufficiency and reduce your
reliance on the external power grid. This not only saves you money financially, but also gives you a greater sense of security psychologically.
3. Long-term return on investment
Although the upfront investment for a home energy storage system is relatively high, it can save you a lot of money on your
electricity bill in the long run. For example, research in Germany has shown that the payback period for a 2kW PV + 2kWh energy
storage system is just 4 years. After that, you will enjoy long-term savings on your electricity bill.
IV. How to choose a home energy storage system?
1. System capacity
Choose the right energy storage capacity according to your household's electricity demand. Generally speaking, a small-sized
family can choose a 1kW PV + 1kWh energy storage system, while a medium-sized family can choose a 2kW PV + 2kWh energy storage system.
2. Technical reliability
Choose an energy storage system brand with a good reputation and advanced technology. For example, Tesla's Powerwall system
is favoured by users for its high efficiency, stability and ease of management.
3. Installation and Maintenance
Choose a system that is easy to install and has low maintenance costs. For example, Huabao New Energy's Jackery Navi 2000 system
adopts an all-in-one design, which allows users to easily do DIY installation without drilling holes, and requires only 3 wires and can
be completed in 5 minutes.
The home energy storage system not only saves you money on your electricity bill, but also provides a reliable power supply in the
event of a power outage, making it a smart choice for modern home energy management. As technology continues to advance and
costs gradually come down, home energy storage systems will become more and more popular. If you're looking to reduce your energy
costs and improve your quality of life, a home energy storage system is definitely worth considering.
