You already make cheap power. A battery lets you keep it.
Higher self-consumption
Most solar homes use only a fraction of what their panels generate. A correctly sized battery can lift that dramatically, which is where the bill savings come from.
Protection from price rises
Backup during blackouts
A quiet, clean system
How it works, in plain English
01
Your panels generate
Through the day, your existing solar system powers your home first.
02
The surplus charges your battery
Instead of exporting for cents, spare energy fills the battery.
03
Evening switchover is automatic
As the sun drops, your home draws from the battery instead of the grid.
04
The grid becomes your backup
You only buy power when the battery is empty, which for a well-sized system is far less often than you would think.
Choosing the right size: a simple guide
Battery capacity is measured in kilowatt hours (kWh). The right size depends on two things: how much surplus solar you export during the day, and how much power your household uses in the evening. As a general guide for Melbourne homes:
Upto 15 kWh
Smaller households with modest evening use often suit around 15 kWh.
15 to 30 kWh
31 kWh and beyond
Larger homes, or homes planning for an electric vehicle, often go bigger, and modular systems can be expanded over time.
Premium brands, carefully chosen
We do not sell everything on the market. We install a short list of batteries we trust, in the specific ranges we know perform, so every recommendation comes from experience rather than a catalogue.
ESA range
CQ7 range
Our primary recommendation
SOFAR batteries offer dependable storage backed by a large global manufacturer, and pair well with a range of existing solar setups.
You may pay far less than the sticker price
Government incentives can take a meaningful chunk out of the upfront cost of a home battery, and Victorian households are well placed to benefit. Programs change over time and eligibility depends on your circumstances, so we check what applies to your home as part of your free quote and handle the paperwork for anything you qualify for.
Federal battery incentives may reduce the upfront cost of an eligible installed battery.
Victorian programs through Solar Victoria have supported solar and battery uptake, including interest free loan options for eligible households.
Your quote will show the price before and after any incentives you are eligible for, so there are no surprises.
