Charge your Electric Vehicle with Solar Panels

There are many advantages to incorporating solar panels into your lifestyle, benefitting your home or business. This includes cutting down on your electricity bills, being able to sell surplus electricity back to the grid and ultimately reducing your carbon footprint. Additionally, there’s another plus to installing solar PV systems to your property; they’re able to charge electric vehicles (EV) también!

How it works
As previously said, it’s great to have solar panels installed onto the roof of your property or establishment, but there are other ways to make the most of this power than just converting sunlight into energy. If you own an electric vehicle, you can use the energy collected from the solar panels which is then transferred to your home-charging unit. This likewise acts as an efficient method of EV charging, further reducing your carbon footprint, and saving you plenty of money in the long run.

Of course, there is the question on how solar panels would be able to charge your EV without any sunlight. The good news is you’d be able to achieve overnight charging or charging in poor weather conditions with the assistance of an integrated battery system, just like the PAC Home Storage Battery.

Having a battery storage system installed, along with solar panels is extremely advantageous as the battery storage system doesn’t require sunlight to function, meaning it’s a great reserve energy source for those particularly rainy days and evenings. Your solar PV system will be sure to work harmoniously with the battery system, preventing any future weather-related doubts or problems.
