Solar systems paired with battery storage are gaining popularity among homeowners and businesses.
By 2025, Wood Mackenzie expects nearly 25% of all behind-the-meter solar systems in the U.S. to include storage. By 2030, the global energy storage market will increase 30 times over 2020 capacity, according to InfoLink. Storage for off-grid and grid-tied systems is becoming more attainable and affordable thanks to certified, reusable lead-acid and lithium-ion batteries.
In this webinar, John Kincaide, President at 2ndLife Batteries®, will discuss the economic value of reusable battery applications and the significant carbon footprint reduction we achieve by reusing batteries within the solar industry.
In this webinar, you will learn about:
- Types of battery chemistries
- Various applications for reusable batteries
- Benefits and challenges with second-life batteries
