When you install a grid-tied solar system, the power grid acts as an immense source of energy storage. The other option you have that is a stand alone system with a solar battery storage. In this scenario, a solar battery bank simply acts as a replacement of the grid.
For an off-grid system, the situation is different. Your battery bank needs to store enough energy to cover all your household’s energy needs for multiple days, especially during cloudy weather or low solar production periods. An off-grid solar battery system must be large enough to supply power 24/7.
There are two main types of PV solar systems with a battery backup: a grid-tied system with battery storage and an off-grid configuration. If you choose the first option, your solar battery system does not need to be so big because blackouts in most western countries usually do not last over prolonged periods.
