Unlike residential energy storage systems, whose technical specifications are expressed in kilowatts, utility-scale battery storage is measured in megawatts (1 megawatt = 1,000 kilowatts). A typical residential solar battery will be rated to provide around 5 kilowatts of power. It can store between 10 and 15 kilowatt-hours of usable energy, as with the
Thermal stores are highly insulated water tanks that can store heat as hot water for several hours. They usually serve two or more functions: Provide hot water, just like a hot water cylinder. Store heat from a solar thermal system or biomass boiler, for providing heating later in the day.; Act as a ''buffer'' for heat pumps to meet extra hot water demand.
