Assess your energy needs

First assess your home’s energy consumption, then determine the size of the system you need. Consider factors such as the number of occupants, typical energy usage patterns, and the appliances you plan to use solar energy

Electrical appliances Power W (Watts) Electrical appliances Power W (Watts)
Fluorescent lamps 40 Fans 50
Energy-saving lamps 10 Refrigerators 100
Computers 250 Mobile phone chargers 6
Fan-cooling 500 Microwave ovens 1000
Kettles 1000 TV sets 200
Water heaters 1500 Washing machines 200
Rice cookers 800 Range hoods 50
Induction cookers 2000 Speakers 300
1-horsepower air conditioners 735 Water dispensers 600

Choose the right solar panels

Choose high-quality solar panels suitable for residential use. Look for panels produced by well-known manufacturers with good efficiency ratings and warranties, such as Longi, Jinko, etc.

Battery storage system

Invest in a reliable battery storage system to store excess solar energy generated during the day for use at night or during power outages to achieve the effect of peak shaving and valley flattening;
Lithium-ion batteries are a popular choice for residential solar storage due to their efficiency and long service life.

Installation

Properly install the solar panels in a suitable location on the roof or property to maximize the absorption of sunlight. Make sure the panels are firmly installed and tilted for optimal energy capture.

Grid connection and permits

If you plan to connect your solar system to the grid, you will need to obtain the necessary permits and comply with local regulations. In addition, consider whether you want to participate in the net metering program offered by the utility company.

Monitoring and maintenance

Implement a monitoring system to track the performance of the solar storage system. Regularly inspect and maintain the components to ensure that they are operating efficiently.

By following the steps below, you can perfectly build your own solar home energy storage system that will not only reduce your carbon footprint but also provide long-term energy savings for your home. Be sure to consult a qualified solar supplier to ensure that your system design and installation meet your specific needs and local requirements.
