kW measures power.
Power describes the rate at which energy is delivered. The inverter and battery output limits affect which loads can run at the same time.
Know your power.
A few clear concepts make a much better starting point for your solar and storage project.
Make the most of daylight.
Solar generation can supply your loads and charge a compatible battery for later use.
Illustrative energy flow. Backup operation requires compatible equipment and a correctly designed installation.
Power and energy.
Two different things.
kWh measures energy.
Energy capacity describes how much a battery can store. Actual usable energy and runtime depend on the model, operating settings, losses and loads.
A clearer starting point.
Does a battery include solar panels?
A standalone battery is one component. An all-in-one storage system may integrate an inverter and solar charge controller, but PV modules and installation are only included if the quotation says so.
Can any battery connect to any inverter?
No. Voltage platform, communication protocols, power limits and manufacturer compatibility all matter. High-voltage storage and 48V storage are different system architectures.
Will solar automatically work during an outage?
Not necessarily. Backup requires equipment and a system designed for that operating mode. Ask about the supported loads, transfer arrangements and installation requirements.
Why are prices quoted individually?
Exact equipment, capacity, accessories and project scope determine the final price. Call Heras Solar to discuss those details.
What should I prepare for a conversation?
Your property type, location, existing solar or electrical equipment, and the loads you want to support. A recent electricity bill and photos of the proposed equipment area can also help.
