Battery that can store several kilowatt-hours of electricity
Most solar batteries feature a capacity measured in kilowatt-hours (kWh), which indicates how much energy they store. For example, a battery with a capacity of 10 kWh can supply 10 kilowatts of power for one hour. Several types of solar batteries cater to different energy storage needs:

How big a battery is needed to store 6 kWh of electricity?
Without a battery: They lose $0.47 every time they export instead of store. With a 20 kWh battery: They store daytime energy and use it at night—saving $280/month. Their battery pays for itself in 6 years. This is where most battery savings happen in —not blackouts. Rate arbitrage is real
