What does Solar-Plus-Storage mean?

Solar-plus-storage is a PV system that pairs solar generation with a battery so energy can be stored and used later.

Why add batteries to a solar system?

Storage can support backup power, self-consumption, time-of-use savings, export management, and grid programs. In plain English: the system can save sunshine for later instead of sending every midday watt out into the world immediately.
