How do solar and wind power systems work?
Solar and wind facilities use the energy stored in batteries to reduce power fluctuations and increase reliability to deliver on-demand power. Battery storage systems bank excess energy when demand is low and release it when demand is high, to ensure a steady supply of energy to millions of homes and businesses.
Why do solar and wind farms need a solar system?
For solar and wind farm operators, the ability to store and control generation means greater security and efficiency. These systems also allow excess energy to be sold back to the grid during peak hours, generating additional revenue and stabilizing electricity prices.
Why do we need solar & wind?
The more solar and wind plants the world installs to wean grids off fossil fuels, the more urgently it needs mature, cost-effective technologies that can cover many locations and store energy for at least eight hours and up to weeks at a time.
Why is energy storage important?
The storage sector has grown rapidly in countries such as China, the United States, and the European Union, where incentives and subsidies are being implemented to encourage renewable energy use. Combining energy storage and renewable sources, especially solar and wind, is essential for grid stability and reliability.

In 2021, Switzerland's photovoltaic (PV) installations increased to 685 MWp from 475 MWp in 2020. The Federal Energy Act, revised and effective from January 1, 2018, changed the support scheme for PV systems: it extended the one-time investment subsidy to all sizes of PV systems, ranging from 2 kW to 50 MW. Additionally, in 2022, the investment subsidy formula was updated to encourage investments in larger PV capacities and more efficient use of rooftop space.
