Batteries are also becoming more of a necessity with the potential drop of net-metering in Virginia. Homeowners with solar panels have been able to treat their local grid as their souce of battery backup. However, if Virginia net metering changes, batteries would become more important in the storage of excess electricity for use during peak electricity usage (Edge Energy).
