"""The VRB system can be charged and discharged simultaneously and illustrates the benefits of PV battery coupled power systems. The battery can be grid connected to also feed power back to the grid. Thus if 200 houses each fitted with a 5 kW system were simultaneously fed into the grid a 1 MW standby power net is available that can be simultaneously charged while supplying the power to the grid. This available energy also comes with an added bonus, it is truly a clean energy source that has the potential to alleviate the burden that extra conventional power generation would place on cities with an already high atmospheric pollution level."""
