Commerce, TX: Alternative energy systems are something that every homeowner around the country should look into. Political and environmental feelings aside, just the price of electricity alone should encourage homeowners to consider becoming more energy independent.

Solar is only one way to do that, but regardless of the system chosen, homeowners that do invest in alternative energy solutions should also be equipped not just with home battery backups, but with the inverters and microgrid interconnection devices necessary to manage them.

That’s where BigBattery comes into focus, or so savvy homeowners have known for quite some time now. This specialist retailer of advanced lithium batteries doesn’t just offer home battery backup systems, they also carry the essentials necessary to manage a whole home’s (or small business’s) energy supply.

Their off-grid battery systems are ideal for homes with solar energy systems, and are composed of advanced lithium batteries with modern, stable lithium chemistry. Many of the company’s home solar batteries feature LiFePO4, or lithium iron phosphate cathodes, which is stable, long-lasting, and unlikely to experience the issues of thermal runaway that plague other types of lithium batteries.

In addition, the lithium off-grid battery solutions that they offer, being lithium, are superior to lead-acid in other ways. They are lighter, more compact, longer-lasting, and lower maintenance than their lead-acid forerunners.

Their lithium batteries are governed by advanced battery management systems that monitor the health of the battery’s cells and balance the load while charging and discharging, among other things.

BigBattery doesn’t just offer off-grid battery systems and other home backups, though. They also carry the equipment necessary to charge and monitor them, as well as the devices necessary to maintain independence from the grid, as well as to tie into it if that is desired.

In addition, the company offers a variety of hybrid inverters as well as MIDs, or “microgrid interconnection devices” such as those in the GridBOSS series, which serve as a single point of control for the home’s whole energy system.

MIDs such as those accept input from alternative energy systems like a solar energy system, and serve as an interface between it and the grid, isolating the home during times of blackout and enabling easy management of the home’s power supply, as well as a much more streamlined installation, along with cost-savings for most homeowners.
