Battery storage

Keep the energy you generate.

A home battery stores surplus solar electricity so you can use it in the evening and at times of higher demand, instead of buying it back from the grid.

How it works

A day with battery storage

Solar generation peaks in the middle of the day, while most homes use the most electricity in the evening. A battery bridges the gap.

Morning

Panels begin generating; your home uses solar first.

Midday

Surplus solar charges the battery instead of going to waste.

Evening

Stored energy powers your home through peak demand.

Overnight

Remaining charge covers baseload until the sun returns.

Benefits

Why add a battery?

  • Use more of your own solar electricity rather than exporting it cheaply
  • Power your home through the evening and periods of higher demand
  • Rely less on the grid and reduce exposure to price rises
  • Some systems can charge from the grid on lower-cost tariffs
  • Certain systems can provide backup power, and we'll explain the options

System design

Sized for your home, not a brochure.

We look at the factors that matter before recommending a battery:

Your energy usage
When and how much electricity you use day to day.
Solar generation
The size and output of your existing or planned array.
Capacity & power
How much energy to store and how fast it can be delivered.
Location & tariff
Where it will be installed and how your tariff works.

Already have solar?

Add storage to your existing system.

Batteries can be retrofitted to most existing solar installations. We'll check compatibility with your inverter and recommend the right approach.
