Solar batteries Ireland | Solar battery costs
It depends on your energy consumption, solar panel output, the battery''s storage capacity and how many days you''d like your batteries to provide power (called autonomy of power). But for the average household - consuming 4,200kWh per year with a standard, 13.5kWh battery and allowing for 2-3 days of battery power - two batteries should suffice.
