Solar panels with battery storage
Generate, store and use your energy even more efficiently, with our battery storage solar panels
What are solar panels?
Sometimes referred to as photovoltaics (PV), solar panels capture the energy of the sun, before storing it to convert into energy, which you can use to help power your home or property.

How do solar panels work?
Made from photovoltaic cells, these cells sit between layers of semi-conducting materials, which, when light is shone on them, create electricity. This electricity is then pushed through an inverter to convert into a current that can be used in your home.
What you might not realise, is that solar panels don’t just work on sunny days. In fact, they can generate electricity on cloudy days, but the stronger the sunshine, the more energy they can create.
What are solar panels with battery storage?
Solar panels with battery storage go one step further: not only will they convert sunlight into energy for your home, but they’ll enable you to become smarter with your energy usage, as it means you can store your energy, so you only use it when you need to.
At LJM Solutions, we offer battery storage for solar panels, meaning you can increase your self-consumption, compared to standard solar panels.
What are the benefits of solar panels?
Solar panels have many benefits, but the two main ones are that they can help to reduce your carbon footprint, as well as cutting your energy bills.
Solar power is often referred to as renewable energy, which means that it can’t be used up. Not only that, but it doesn’t create any carbon emissions, and obtaining it doesn’t result in any environmental damage that the likes of drilling and mining for fossil fuels does. Therefore, buying solar panels means you’ve taken a huge step towards becoming more sustainable, and reducing your carbon footprint.
The other great thing about solar energy, is that it’s entirely free, and once your solar panels have been installed, you can start to get energy from the sun. Typically, a solar panel system can produce 40% of the total electricity a household generates in a year, which means you could slash your energy bills by almost half.
The cost of solar panels
Whilst there is an initial investment for solar panels, you start to save money from day one, meaning the benefits will soon outweigh the costs. We always stay up to date with our products and advances in technology so therefore use Tier 1 solar panels to ensure maximum effeciency on your system.
