Solar Generators are composed of solar panels and a portable energy storage unit that collects power from the sun and stores it for use at a later time. A solar generator is a portable power station that uses a portable solar array to recharge batteries, the stored electrical power which can be used to charge or run other devices. A solar generator stores power, either from sunlight or the electrical grid, to provide backup energy for an emergency household, or to conduct activities such as camping that do not use electricity.
You can use stored solar energy in your generator when the power goes out, recharge devices while camping, and as an energy source during RV or boating trips.
Instead of paying higher electric rates during peak use hours, you can power your home with the energy in a backup battery. By using the energy you have stored during peak hours when electricity is at its highest cost, you will save money on your electric bill.
Savings are particularly effective if your solar panels system is capable of producing enough power to power your entire house. Depending on how much energy your solar panel system produces, you may need a few years before you begin seeing an overall savings in terms of electricity costs. Because of the nature of solar power as an up-front capital investment, the only costs associated with your solar power system would be your installation costs, and any added electrical costs if your panels did not fully offset 100% of your electrical usage.
Then, on days with bad weather, or in the evenings, when your solar system is producing less than expected, your system may draw additional energy needed to power your home, using the credits that have been accumulated to offset the cost of that extra energy. Essentially, your solar panels produce power, then sell excess energy back to the grid to get credit for their monthly electricity bills. The best part is that you never need to worry about running out of fuel because as long as the sun is shining, your generator-portable solar panels can always produce extra power for you to use. You can move around the solar panels that are used to generate energy to make sure that they are in the best location to take in the most of the suns power, regardless of where you are.
While you might not need solar generators, they can be helpful as backup energy sources, particularly if you live in a region that is susceptible to blackouts. While a solar-powered generator runs on renewable energy, it is slow to recharge and is limited in how much energy it can store. Because solar-powered generators require more time to charge and have limited energy storage capability, they are best used for camping and for occasional power outages. Whether you need to keep lights on when the power grid goes down, or want to charge up your phone while on a camping trip, a Solar Generator is an excellent way to keep some extra power available.
Based on the assumptions made above, if you keep using your solar generator for power needs, you will save between $1,000 and $2,400 a month after your break-even date.
