How to Size PV Battery Backups
The more energy you consume, the bigger the storage facility you need. Buckets are measured in liters or gallons; battery capacity is measured in watt- or amp-hours. If the battery uses a higher voltage source for charging (like a full-strength PV array), you will enjoy a higher voltage recharge – a battery bank of 24V can record a 30V voltage when it goes through equalization charging.
What are Diversion Loads?
An electrical load is normally required all the time to work a wind or hydro turbine. The energy generated from these sources needs to be redirected elsewhere when the batteries are fully charged. This is where the diversion load steps in.
