By comparing the energy behavior of PV-battery and PV-only systems, it is found that the presence of the battery reduces peak power to and from the grid. For the system with actual sizes (residential SH), the energy sold to the grid is almost eliminated and there is a 60% reduction in the amount of electricity bought.
Storing the PV-produced energy in the battery equals to self-consuming it as it is not sold, but used at a later stage. In this scenario, the export tariff on the excess energy sold to the grid is still in place. The user in fact would still earn money for the energy sold to the grid, but it would lose the generation incentive on that energy.
Photovoltaic power generation has been most useful in remote applications with small power requirements where the cost of running distribution lines was not feasible. As PV power becomes more affordable, the use of photovoltaics for grid-connected applications is increasing.
This is due to the relatively big size of the battery (14.4 kWh) compared to the PV generation size (3 kWp nominal, around 2 kWp in practice). The system was not designed for the specific application described in this work, so it is far from being optimally designed.
In 1958, the Vanguard satellite employed the first practical photovoltaic generator producing a modest 1 W. In the 1960s, the space program continued to demand improved photovoltaic power generation technology. Scientist needed to get as much electrical power as possible from photovoltaic collectors, and cost was of secondary importance .
