In any photovoltaic system that includes batteries, the batteries become a central component of the overall system which significantly affect the cost, maintenance requirements, reliability, and design of the photovoltaic system.
In a standalone photovoltaic system battery as an electrical energy storage medium plays a very significant and crucial part. It is because in the absence of sunlight the solar PV system won’t be able to store and deliver energy to the load.
The important battery parameters that affect the photovoltaic system operation and performance are the battery maintenance requirements, lifetime of the battery, available power and efficiency.
The battery of the second system cannot only store electricity from the PV system, but also store electricity from the grid at low valley tariffs, and the stored electricity can be supplied to the buildings or sold to the grid to realize price arbitrage.
Adding the battery in the PV system not only can transfer peak generation to meet peak consumption, but also can utilize TOU tariff to charge the battery at low tariff and discharge the battery at high tariff to realize price arbitrage, which provides a new idea for efficient utilization of the PV system.
Batteries with a large charge-discharge cycle are the most suitable for the application of a standalone PV system. Other factors that add up to the selection of the battery are the cost and availability of the batteries. Before choosing a battery, we need to make sure its availability in the market.

How do solar batteries work? Battery types and definition
Batteries transform the electrical energy they receive from photovoltaic modules into chemical energy. This conversion is carried out from the reaction that occurs when two different materials, such as those of the positive and negative plates, are immersed in the electrolyte. The electrolyte is a solution of sulfuric acid and water.
