Solar Backup Batteries
At Rubix Battery, we know solar energy is one of the most effective tools available for reducing grid dependence and lowering energy costs. While solar panels have become more efficient and affordable, many people still misunderstand one critical point: solar panels don't store energy. They generate electricity from sunlight, but once the sun sets or a storm knocks out the grid, they stop working unless that energy has somewhere to go. That's where our solar backup batteries come in.
Solar panels operate using photovoltaic (PV) cells that convert sunlight into direct current (DC) electricity. An inverter then converts that electricity into alternating current (AC), which powers your home or facility. It's a seamless, passive process as long as the sun is shining. However, the system is incomplete without a storage component. Without solar backup batteries, any unused energy generated during the day simply goes unused, or it may be sent back to the grid in net metering setups, often at a lower return rate than your cost to draw power when the sun is down.
Solar panels do not require batteries to function. They will feed electricity to whatever is directly connected to them or back to the grid. But that direct-only system lacks resilience. As the electric grid faces increased strain and climate events become more unpredictable, having on-site energy storage isn't just smart. It's essential.
At Rubix Battery, we build our systems with scalability and efficiency in mind. Our solar backup batteries are designed to store excess energy from your panels during daylight hours and then automatically provide power when the sun goes down or grid service is disrupted. Whether you're running a home, a business, or a critical infrastructure site, our systems ensure you're never left in the dark.
Rubix Battery technology integrates seamlessly with most modern solar installations, providing a closed-loop solution that ensures you use more of the energy you generate. When paired with smart inverters and monitoring software, our solar backup batteries become a central component of your energy strategy, extending your independence from the grid.
Solar backup batteries do more than keep your lights on in a blackout. They give you control over your energy use. By timing your draw from the grid, you avoid high peak rates and store power when it's most abundant. Rubix solar batteries can dramatically reduce utility bills. In areas with time-of-use pricing, our batteries enable users to shift their consumption to the most cost-effective times without sacrificing comfort or productivity.
More importantly, they create a buffer between you and the volatility of utility service. Whether it's rolling blackouts, winter storms, or unplanned outages, Rubix Battery gives you peace of mind that your power is secure 24/7. Our solar batteries are constructed using high-performance lithium-iron-phosphate (Life PO₄) chemistry, renowned for its safety, longevity, and thermal stability. Every component we use is selected for reliability under real-world conditions. We know that backup power can't be theoretical—it has to work when you need it, without fail. That's why we prioritize quality in every system we deliver.
We don't sell solar panels, but we make them complete. At Rubix Battery, we focus on what happens after the sun sets. Without batteries, a solar system is only half a solution. With the right storage, it becomes a 24-hour energy ecosystem. Rubix Battery is here to help you make the most of your solar investment every hour of the day. Contact us today to get started.
