Question: Electricity/batteries/solar panels

[Donmessa]

Hey,

I was wondering if there's a correlation between the solar panels/batteries you can put on the roof and the electric charging stations?

Or for which do these serve?

Thanks in advance

yes
producing your own solar energy lowers the electricity bill and can get rid of it completly if you have everything full upgraded (shop max and all solar panels bought and upgraded)
the batteries currently only load up till you sell the energy in them but people have suggested that they will be used to power the station during night and the dev seems to like that idea

Thanks for the clarification. How do you sell the energy? It doesn't give me that option.

go up to the batteries
there you should see their charge and an option to sell it

The problem is, I can see the solar panel building up energy, but, nothing transfers to the battery...

do you have all panels and fully upgraded? because it first lowers your electricity bill till you make more energy than you use. only after that it fills the battery
