Energy Storage vs Energy Storage System: What's the Difference and Why It Matters
Ever wondered why your neighbor’s solar panels keep their lights on during blackouts while yours don’t? The answer likely lies in the difference between energy storage and an energy storage system (ESS). Let’s cut through the jargon and explore why this distinction matters for homeowners, businesses, and even entire power grids.
