SMART BATTERY STORAGE
Store More. Waste Less.
Store excess solar energy, reduce grid reliance, and power your home or business more intelligently.
The BEnefits of BatteriES
Why Add Battery Storage?
Solar panels generate most of their energy during the day - often when you're using the least electricity.
Without a battery, excess solar is exported back to the grid.
With battery storage, that energy is stored for later use, helping you power your property during the evening when energy demand - and electricity prices - are often highest.
A well-designed battery system can significantly increase solar self-consumption and reduce dependence on the grid.
5–6 kWh
IDEAL FOR
Smaller homes
1–3 occupants
Lower evening usage
TYPICAL USE
Store enough energy to cover evening appliances, lighting, and essentials.
What Battery Size Do You Need?
The right battery size depends on your energy usage, solar generation, and goals.
10–12 kWh
Ideal for:
Family homes
EV charging
Heat pumps
Higher electricity demand
Typical use:
Can cover most evening and overnight electricity demand.
15 kWh+
Ideal for:
Large homes
High energy users
Businesses
Backup power requirements
Typical use:
Maximum energy independence and greater resilience.
Why Battery Storage Matters
Without battery storage, unused solar energy is often exported back to the grid.
With battery storage, that excess energy can be stored and used later — powering your home or business in the evening, during peak tariff periods, or when solar generation is low.
This means more self-sufficiency, better energy efficiency, and lower bills.
Benefits of Battery Storage
Maximise Solar Self-Consumption
Store excess solar energy generated during the day and use it when demand is highest, instead of importing expensive electricity from the grid.
Reduce Energy Bills
Use stored power during peak-rate periods and reduce your exposure to rising electricity prices.
Backup & Resilience
Battery systems can help improve energy security and reduce reliance on the grid, giving you greater resilience during outages or supply instability.
Smart Tariff Optimisation
Charge your battery overnight using cheaper off-peak tariffs, then use that stored energy during expensive daytime hours.
Intelligent Energy Control
Modern battery systems automatically optimise charging and discharge based on your usage patterns, solar production, and tariff structure.
