Battery storage is the key to maximizing your solar investment. Here is everything you need to know about choosing the right battery for your solar system.
Types of Solar Batteries
Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) – The gold standard for solar storage. Offers 6,000+ charge cycles, excellent safety, and 10+ year lifespan. Brands like Dyness lead this category.
Lead Acid – Budget option with 500-1000 cycles. Shorter lifespan but lower upfront cost.
Sizing Your Battery Bank
The right battery size depends on your daily energy consumption and desired backup duration. A typical Kenyan home uses 10-15kWh daily. For full night backup, a 10-15kWh battery bank is recommended.
