From what I know about solar energy, I can try to put light on that. Solar energy is harvested using solar cells and stored in a battery. That is further converted to AC for use. But I dont think it can be stored in normal batteries.
Solar energy can be stored in conventional 12/24v lead acid batteries ..
The setup should be Solar panel >Charge controller > battery ..
A diode is usually added at panel to avoid current flowing into it during dark..
solar panel using in a tiny calculator to large industries. its vary storage device(battery) size. u must have to use rechargeable battery and need some circuits (Charge controller charging level indicator etc ).
Thanks
