Our #FastFactFriday series on why your business might still need a solar battery system is nearing its end! ⚡Even though loadshedding seems to be a thing of the past (for now), many businesses still face other grid interruptions due to cable theft, fire damage, and ageing substations. 💰That's why many have invested in backup power to keep the lights on and the machines running. Diesel generators and liquefied natural gas (LNG) are more popular options that do offer backup power but also come with hidden future costs that can grow over time. 🤔 So, is a solar backup battery power solution a cheaper option? We don’t want to use the phrase ‘it depends’...but it really does depend on how your business consumes power and what cost savings mean to you. 💡It could be in the form of protecting yourself against downtime losses 📊Or you could benefit from your battery even when there's no loadshedding by employing strategies like Time of Use Arbitrage There's no one-size-fits all solution. Remember that you can always chat to our Energy Experts about which BESS would be best for your biz ➡️https://bit.ly/4cYChbU. Buying a robust battery system in cash is also an expensive endeavour. This is why, much like our solar financing options, we offer a lease option (including maintenance and monitoring) so that more businesses can bring the power of BESS to their operations.
