Battery sizes are measured by how much solar electricity they can store, but generally, you shouldn''t fully drain a battery, as it can damage it, meaning it''ll likely need replacing sooner. Most modern batteries allow you to use 85% and 95% of the energy stored. So you''d expect a 8kWh battery to have a usable capacity of between 6.8kWh and 7.6kWh.

What electricity storage will be needed, and what are the alternatives? Electricity can be stored in a variety of ways, including in batteries, by compressing air, by making hydrogen using electrolysers, or as heat.
You can store electricity in electrical batteries, or convert it into heat and stored in a heat battery. You can also store heat in thermal storage, such as a hot water cylinder. Energy storage can be useful if you already generate your own renewable energy, as it lets you use more of your low carbon energy.
Historical weather records indicate that it will be necessary to store large amounts of energy (some 1000 times that provided by pumped hydro) for many years. What electricity storage will be needed, and what are the alternatives?
If you have solar PV panels, or are planning to install them, then using home batteries to store electricity you’ve generated will help you to maximise the amount of renewable energy you use. Storing your solar energy will reduce how much electricity you use from the grid, and cut your energy bills.
If you have a renewable electricity generator like solar panels or a wind turbine, installing energy storage will save you money on your electricity bills. You need to weigh the potential savings against the cost of installation and how long the battery will last.
