Looking for some opinions on the best way to add battery storage to an existing grid tie system.
Power hereis .64/kWh and the local utility doesn't offer net metering. Right now they are happily taking my excess power for freeand selling it elsewhere.
My system is a sunnyboy 5000tl and 5kw of solar panels. It seems the convensionalway to add battery storage would be to AC couple with a sunnyboy island. Just wondering if anyone here is running that setup and how they like it? Can the sunnyboy island be configured to safely charge lithium batteries?
Maybe AC coupling isn't the answer. Any other ideas?
Thanks.
