Solar Integration: Solar Energy and Storage Basics
Coupling solar energy and storage technologies is one such case. The reason: Solar energy is not always produced at the time energy is needed most. When electricity is fed into a battery, it causes a chemical reaction, and energy is stored. When a battery is discharged, that chemical reaction is reversed, which creates voltage between two
