Home battery options for your solar system
Flow batteries
Flow batteries come with newer technology and are less common than lithium-ion and flooded lead-acid batteries. They store energy in liquid electrolytes, offer long life cycles, and are able to discharge power completely without getting damaged. However, flow batteries are the most expensive of the three options.
- PROS
- Safer than lithium-ion batteries
- Longer lifespan
- CONS
- The most expensive solar batteries
- Not efficient as lithium-ion batteries
Lithium-ion
batteries
Lithium-ion solar batteries are one of the most popular options in the market. They are known for their long lifespan, deep discharge capabilities, and high efficiency. However, lithium batteries tend to be more expensive than other types of solar batteries.
- PROS
- High-efficiency batteries
- Low maintenance
- Deep discharge capabilities
- Long life span, lasting up to 15 years
- CONS
- Huge initial cost
Flooded lead-acid batteries
These are more affordable off grid solar batteries. However, flooded lead-acid batteries are less efficient than lithium batteries. Plus, they have shorter life spans and require regular maintenance.
- PROS
- Not expensive batteries
- Readily available in the market
- CONS
- Short life span. Only 8 years.
- Regular maintenance required
- Bulky in size

Perguntas frequentes
A home battery, such as those offered by Voltaicos.pt, is an essential component of solar energy storage systems (Sistemas de armazenamento de energia solar). It stores excess energy generated by solar panels during the day for use later, reducing reliance on the grid and maximizing self-consumption of solar power.
Installing a home battery from Voltaicos.pt offers benefits such as increased energy independence, optimized use of solar energy (Armazenamento de energia), and potential savings on electricity bills by reducing peak demand charges.
While solar panels (Baterias domésticas) complement a home battery by providing renewable energy to store, they are not strictly required. Home batteries can also charge from the grid, storing electricity when rates are low for use during peak times.
Costs for home battery systems vary based on capacity and installation requirements. Contact Voltaicos.pt for a personalized quote tailored to your energy needs and home specifications.
Home batteries typically have a lifespan of 10 years or more, ensuring reliable energy storage and sustained savings over time.
Yes, Portugal offers various incentives and subsidies for renewable energy systems, including home batteries. Voltaicos.pt can provide guidance on available incentives to maximize savings.
The size of the home battery depends on your energy consumption and backup needs. Voltaicos.pt offers consultations to determine the ideal battery capacity for optimizing energy storage and usage.
When selecting a home battery system, consider factors such as energy usage patterns, budget, and compatibility with existing solar installations. Voltaicos.pt provides expert guidance to help you make an informed decision.
Home batteries require minimal maintenance, such as regular monitoring and occasional inspection, to ensure optimal performance and longevity.
