Northeast Nebraska and Candelaria Philippines | Here is some math..
This would be if you're charging the battery with solar..
a 20 kwh battery for 6000..
20 kwh say at 10 cents a kwh would be $2.00 for every cycle.
The battery last 10,000 cycles or more... actually, after 10,000 cycles, it should still have 80% of new capacity..
10,000 cycles times $2.00 is $20,000 on a $6000 battery...
So it's not all that great, unless you see some benefit of having some standby power if the grid goes down.
Or even if you have a generator, it can work with that.
Say you have a 5000 watt generator. Might run your well pump, but might not be enough to get it started. A battery can charge and discharge while it works with a generator to meet demand. Be much easier on the motors and electronics in the house too.
