Abstract: This paper analyses the degradation that is experienced by different types of Li-ion batteries when used as home solar storage systems controlled to minimize the electricity bill of the corresponding household. Simulating the annual operation of photovoltaic (PV) residential systems with batteries at different locations was undertaken to perform the study and it uses actual consumption values and real PV production profiles, as well as validated semi-empirical ageing models of the batteries. Therefore, the work provides a realistic prognosis around the lifetime expectancies for the different Li-ion chemistries.
