Is a Solar Battery Worth It?
Whether a solar battery is worth it depends on how you use power. A battery stores surplus solar for the evening, so it pays off when you export a lot and buy a lot at night. This page is part of our solar battery installation service.

When a Battery Pays Off
- You use most of your power in the evening and overnight.
- Your feed-in tariff is low, so exported power earns little.
- You are on a time-of-use plan with high evening rates.
- Blackouts are a concern for you.
When It May Not
- Your evening use is low.
- Your solar system is small and leaves little surplus.
- The upfront cost does not suit your budget.
