Using the stored energy, they discharge their storage batteries during the day. It costs them £1.84. This means they have lowered their electricity bill by 31% simply by their using battery storage. Now imagine this household has solar panels. They are able to fill, for instance, 50% of their battery from excess generation of the solar PV.
They will charge their battery at times of very low demand, at prices as low as 5p per kWh or lower and will force discharge their battery onto the grid when energy firms require it the most. Energy companies will sometimes pay more than 40p per unit of electricity to buy from your battery.
If you have a renewable energy system, such as solar panels, overnight charging can complement your energy strategy. By charging your battery at night, you ensure that it is full and ready to store solar energy during the day. This can maximise your use of clean energy and further reduce reliance on the grid.
This screenshot shows that during the day, the user will be charged 26.55p per kWh used. Assuming the average home consumes 10 kWh each day, this amounts to £2.66. In our scenario, this household has a domestic storage battery and charges it from the grid the night before at a rate of 11.84p.
