Battery Storage
Battery storage helps you make better use of the electricity you generate or buy. Instead of exporting surplus solar back to the grid during the day, you can store it and use it later in the
evening. You can also charge a battery overnight on cheaper off-peak tariffs and use that energy during higher-cost periods, helping to reduce bills and improve energy independence.
At SJD Electrical Services Cumbria Ltd, we design and install battery storage systems across Cumbria for domestic properties, holiday lets and small businesses. We will advise you on the right battery capacity, the best location for installation, and whether you would benefit from backup power, smart monitoring and tariff optimisation.
What battery storage can do for you
- Use more of your solar energy by storing daytime generation and using it after sunset
- Reduce reliance on the grid and protect yourself from rising energy prices
- Make the most of time-of-use tariffs by charging when electricity is cheaper
- Support EV charging by smoothing demand and reducing peak import
- Backup power options to keep essential circuits running during outages (where supported)
- Clear monitoring of battery level, household usage and solar generation through an app
Battery storage options we install
There is no one-size-fits-all battery. The best solution depends on your household usage, whether you already have solar PV, your electricity tariff, and how important backup power is to you. We can supply and install leading systems and recommend the most suitable setup following a site survey.
- Sigenergy battery storage – a modular, stackable system that can be expanded over time, with smart monitoring and optional gateway functionality.
- Tesla Powerwall 3 – a popular all-in-one home battery designed to store energy and support whole-home usage.
- GivEnergy battery storage – flexible options for homes and businesses, often well suited to time-of-use tariff strategies.
Not sure where to start? Our guide to choosing the right energy solution explains the key considerations and what to think about before you invest.
Is battery storage right for your home or business?
Battery storage is often a good fit if you generate solar electricity, have higher evening energy use, run an EV, or want more control over when you buy electricity from the grid. It can also suit
holiday lets and rural properties where reliability and efficient energy use are important.
We will help you choose the right battery size and configuration based on your goals. As part of our assessment we look at your typical daily usage, solar generation (if you have it), available space, and any backup power requirements.
