Solar + battery systems — benefits & who they suit best:

 

Key benefits:

​

• Power when the grid goes down. Batteries provide blackout protection, keeping essential circuits running during outages.

• Greater bill reduction and energy independence. Store excess solar and use it at night instead of buying power from the grid.

• Protection against rising tariffs and changing feed-in rules. Use more of your own power rather than relying on exports.

 

Who benefits most:

​

1. Rural and regional properties with frequent outages. Ideal where grid reliability is poor or unpredictable.

2. High evening or overnight energy users. Homes running air con, pools, and other power-hungry appliances at night.

3. Customers seeking long-term control and resilience. Those who value reliability, self-sufficiency and future-proofing over lowest upfront cost.
