See what changes
Start with solar. Add storage, then EV charging. See how each changes the way the same home uses energy.
Solar
Solar supplies the home while the sun is up. In this example, spare energy goes to the grid. After sunset, the grid supplies the home.
At midday, solar is generating while the home uses energy.
The home uses solar first; spare energy can flow to the grid.
When there isn’t enough solar, the grid supplies the difference.
A battery or charger can be considered as part of a wider system.
An educational comparison, using shared assumptions rather than product performance. The day, house demand and initial battery charge are illustrative. Actual operation depends on your equipment, installation, settings and connection. No savings or bill outcomes are predicted.
Solar makes energy. A battery stores it. A charger adds a way to use it. All three examples keep a grid connection.
