Is a battery still worth it? For many homes, yes. With battery rebates still available and more flexible energy options emerging, storage is becoming a smarter choice for many households.

A battery helps you use more of your own solar, rely less on the grid, and take advantage of new ways to trade energy back when the opportunity is there.

Will solar actually save you money? For many homes, solar can offset around 50% of energy costs, and with smart monitoring and better load management, that can improve even further.

Simple changes like running your pool pump, dishwasher, or washing machine during the day help you use more of your own solar instead of buying from the grid. Add a battery, and you can store solar for night-time use too.

Thinking about a home battery?

Just a few years ago, solar feed-in tariffs were high enough that many households could slash their power bills simply by exporting excess solar to the grid. Today, with feed-in tariffs often sitting at just a few cents per kWh, that strategy doesn't work nearly as well.

That's one of the biggest reasons battery installations have exploded across Australia. Instead of giving away excess solar for next to nothing, homeowners can store it during the day and use it at night when electricity prices are highest.

But there's another opportunity many battery owners are exploring: earning income through a Virtual Power Plant (VPP).

What happens after you say yes to solar and battery? First, your installer handles the grid connection approval with your energy provider. Once approved, installation typically takes 1–2 days for homes (longer for commercial).

After install, the system is commissioned, apps are set up, and you’re shown how everything works. Good installers also follow up after your first bill to make sure you’re getting the most out of your system.

Thinking about a battery? Blackout protection is a big reason why.
