A grid-connected renewable energy system -- one that is connected to the electric grid -- requires balance-of-system equipment to safely transmit electricity to your loads and to comply with your power provider's grid-connection requirements. You will need power conditioning equipment, safety equipment, and meters and instrumentation.
If you want to store power for use when your renewable energy system isn't producing electricity, you will need to purchase batteries and a charge controller, which are considered balance-of-system equipment. The cost of this equipment for a stand-alone system could account for half of your total system costs.
For stand-alone systems, which are not connected to the electric grid, the amount of equipment you will need to buy depends on what you want your system to do. In the simplest systems, the current generated by your system is connected directly to the equipment that it is powering (load).
For both stand-alone and grid-connected renewable energy systems, you will need power conditioning equipment since most electrical appliances and equipment in the United States run on alternating current (AC) electricity. Virtually all the available renewable energy technologies, with the exception of some solar electric units, produce direct current (DC) electricity.
In March 2023, the European Commission published a series of recommendations on energy storage, outlining policy actions that would help ensure greater deployment of electricity storage in the European Union.
Batteries are the most scalable type of grid-scale storage and the market has seen strong growth in recent years. Other storage technologies include compressed air and gravity storage, but they play a comparatively small role in current power systems.
