Home battery design & installation

Store today's sunshine. Run your home after dark.

A home battery soaks up the solar you'd otherwise export for cents and hands it back in the evening, when power is most expensive. We size it to your night-time usage, not to the biggest box on the truck.

Our approach

Sized to your evenings, not to the biggest box on the truck

We read your interval data or bills to see how much power you use after sunset, then size the battery to cover it. Oversizing costs more and earns a smaller share of the federal discount above 14 kWh.

What's included

Designed, installed and handed over properly.

  1. 01

    Evening-usage sizing

    Capacity matched to what your household uses between sunset and sunrise.

  2. 02

    Retrofit to existing solar

    We check your current inverter and wiring at the inspection and tell you exactly what's needed.

  3. 03

    Backup options explained

    Not every battery keeps the lights on in a blackout. We show you which circuits can be backed up and what that costs.

  4. 04

    VPP-capable hardware

    Batteries on the federal program must be able to join a virtual power plant. We explain the offers so you can decide.

  5. 05

    Safe, compliant placement

    Location chosen for ventilation, clearances and Australian Standards, inside or out.

  6. 06

    Discount applied for you

    We create and assign the STCs, so the federal discount appears as a lower price on your quote.

Compliance & safety

Labelling that meets Australian Standards

Non-compliant labelling is the single most common fault the Clean Energy Regulator finds when it inspects battery installs. We label every system to the current Australian Standards, so emergency responders and any trade working on it later know exactly what they're dealing with.

AS/NZS 3000AS/NZS 4777.1AS/NZS 5139

Labelled against the CER inspection checklist

  • Battery energy storage system (BESS) signage to AS/NZS 5139
  • Shutdown and isolation procedures labelled at the switchboard and the battery enclosure
  • Checked against the same labelling checklist Clean Energy Regulator inspectors use

Batteries: common questions

Still curious? Call 1300 498 299 or request your quote.

Often, yes. Depending on your inverter we'll recommend an AC-coupled battery or a hybrid inverter upgrade. We confirm which at the inspection.
