In this video we will not only have a closer look at mini solar system that everyone can easily use; but we will also push it to its limit ;-) By that I mean I will show you how to create an energy storage system or ESS for short. With it you can use the excess solar power to charge a big battery pack and then use the energy in the batteries to later power your home. This way none of your solar power escapes to the power grid. Let's get started!
