Home Battery Storage Technologies

Choosing the right battery for your home energy system is crucial for maximizing your solar investment.

Lithium-Ion (NMC)

High energy density batteries commonly used in electric vehicles. Good performance but requires careful thermal management.

1. Energy Density: High
2. Cycle Life: 3,000-5,000 cycles
3. Safety: Moderate (thermal runaway risk)

Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP)

Safer chemistry with longer lifespan. Increasingly popular for home storage applications.

1. Energy Density: Moderate
2. Cycle Life: 5,000-10,000 cycles
3. Safety: Excellent (no thermal runaway)

Choosing the Right Battery

Consider your daily energy needs, available space, and budget. LFP batteries offer better long-term value despite higher upfront costs.
