Virtual battery energy storage

What is a virtual battery?

Virtual batteries are a service offered by certain energy companies that can store surplus energy produced that has not been compensated on your bill. It is not a physical system, it’s a virtual energy saving system that allows the energy produced that has not been compensated to be accounted for and transformed into a credit balance for the user.

What are the benefits of a virtual battery?

Continuous energy delivery: Virtual batteries allow the constant delivery of electrical energy at any time and power. Reduced energy costs: By storing surplus solar energy, virtual batteries can reduce long-term electricity costs as users can rely less on grid power and avoid high peak-hour energy prices.

How do virtual solar batteries work?

Virtual batteries Optimize solar self-consumption By allowing users to consume their excess solar energy at any time. So, even at night and in winter, they function like physical batteries. However, they offer greater flexibility and scalability than the latter. For example, it is possible to adapt your energy needs to daily uses.
