Pro tip! Even if you have little, or even no solar panel capacity at all, perhaps due to limited roof space, you can charge your batteries from the grid using the extremely good value night time tariffs available. Night time tariffs can save you as much as 70% on your energy bill, you can even sell your stored energy back to the grid at a profit - and no solar panels required!
We typically recommend sizing your battery equal to 50 to 100% of your daily electricity usage. The nice thing about batteries is that they are modular, meaning that you can start small and add to your storage capacity later. Using an example where a consumer uses 9KWh per day, we would recommend a minimum of a 5KWh battery to start off with.
We only fit Lithium-ion batteries due to their efficiency, longer lifespan, and compact size. Lithium-Ion are also considered extremely safe when compared with other technologies.
Battery solutions reduce dependency on external energy suppliers, protecting homeowners from rising energy prices and enhancing energy security, keeping that lovely free energy flowing, even after the sun goes down. Battery systems can even be configured to keep the power on to your home in the event of a power cut.
We only work with the market's leading suppliers meaning best-in-class warranties on the batteries we fit. The typical warranty term in 2024 is 12 years.
