The size of a home battery depends on various factors, including your energy consumption, the capacity of your solar panels (if applicable), the desired autonomy, and the intended use of the battery.
To determine the required size of a home battery, it is important to analyze your daily energy consumption. This can be done by reviewing your energy bills and looking at the average daily energy consumption in kilowatt-hours (kWh). Additionally, you can also look at peak loads, such as energy consumption during the use of large appliances like air conditioning, heating systems, or electric vehicles.
If you have solar panels, you can also consider the amount of energy you generate daily and how much of this you want to store in the home battery. This can help you determine how much energy you want to draw from the grid and how much you want to store for later use.
The desired autonomy is also important when determining the size of the home battery. Autonomy refers to the period in which you want to be fully self-sufficient using the stored energy in the battery. This can range from a few hours to several days, depending on your needs and the reliability of the power grid in your region.
It is advisable to seek professional advice from a recognized supplier or a professional installer of home batteries. They can help you determine the right size of the home battery based on your specific needs, energy consumption, and other factors that may influence it.
