BUILDER blogger Aaron Nitzkin on the opportunities in solar energy storage as California''s 2020 mandate approaches.
READ MORESolar energy storage is primarily achieved through three methods: battery storage, thermal storage, and mechanical storage. Battery storage systems, such as lithium-ion or lead-acid batteries, capture energy produced by solar panels for later use. This technology is the most commonly utilized form in residential solar installations.
