The Different Energy-Efficient Lighting Solutions for Your Home
02nd Dec 24
At Griff Services, we offer premium battery storage solutions tailored for homes throughout Greater Manchester and the UK. Our systems enable you to store excess renewable energy—such as solar panels—reducing your reliance on the grid and helping you gain more control over your energy use.
Domestic Battery storage refers to the technology that allows homeowners to store excess energy generated from renewable sources like solar panels, or even from the grid during off-peak times, for later use. This energy can be utilised when the electricity demand is higher, such as in the evenings, or when the renewable energy source isn’t generating enough power, like during cloudy weather or at night.
In a typical setup, renewable energy systems like solar panels produce electricity during the day, often more than what the household can immediately consume. Without a battery storage system, this excess energy would be sent back to the grid. However, with battery storage, this surplus energy is stored in a battery unit, allowing you to draw from it when needed, rather than relying on grid electricity.
– Energy Independence:
Battery storage enables homeowners to use stored renewable energy, reducing their reliance on the national grid and providing greater control over their energy use.
– Cost Savings:
By storing energy during low-cost periods or when solar panels generate excess energy, homeowners can reduce their electricity bills, especially during peak demand times when electricity is more expensive.
– Backup Power:
In case of a power outage, battery storage can act as a backup, supplying power to essential systems like lighting, heating, or even medical devices.
– Maximising Renewable Energy:
Without battery storage, much of the energy generated by renewable sources may be wasted. Storing this energy ensures that every unit produced is used efficiently, further reducing the household’s carbon footprint.
– Grid Demand Reduction:
By reducing the need to draw power from the grid during peak times, battery storage helps ease the strain on the electricity network, contributing to a more stable and reliable energy system.
– Lithium-ion batteries: The most commonly used batteries for domestic properties due to their high efficiency, long lifespan, and large storage capacity. They’re ideal for homeowners looking for reliability and longevity in their energy storage solutions.
– Lead-acid batteries: A more cost-effective option, but they have a shorter lifespan and lower efficiency compared to lithium-ion batteries. These are typically used in off-grid settings or for those looking for a budget-friendly solution.
– Hybrid Systems: some homeowners opt for hybrid systems, which combine battery storage with grid connection, allowing them to both store excess renewable energy and access grid electricity when needed.

We needed to replace solar panels inverter and Griff Services quoted a very sensible price. They were able to do the installation only a few days later. It was all done in a day, with no disruption and a great deal of efficiency and courtesy. We were exceedingly impressed by Michael’s conscientious approach, both to the original discussions and the planning process, and also to the execution of the job. He was a pleasure to meet and to have around the place. Thank you, Michael.
Meeting Michael and the GRIFF team was a breath of fresh air. Michael and his entire team were on-hand and available through the whole process to cope with the inevitable challenges of a project this size, and their ongoing quality assurance throughout the programme ensured that on move-in day, we did not even have one item which was not fully operational. I would thoroughly recommend GRIFF tor commercial projects of any scale.
The EV charging point install was very tidy and efficient. Happy to recommend Griff Services in future.
The onsite team from Griff were super respectful and got everything done in terrible weather conditions.
Michael at Griff has done work for me both commercial and residential. Excellent ability to understand and execute every job with a great attention to detail and positive attitude.
We were really impressed by the professionalism of Griff Services and would recommend them in the future. The work was undertaken well and we had positive comments regarding the corporate identity of Michael and his co-worker and the company vehicle.
Griff Services did a great job for me. They arranged for the installation of the EV charging point at short notice and provided update and reminder text messages prior to the job. On the morning of the install they also notified me of the installer Tom's ETA. Tom did a great and tidy job and was extremely pleasant to deal with. Overall I would highly recommend them for future work. Thank you
