Solar power is a true phenomenon. Australia has grown to become a powerhouse in solar energy, slowly leaving coal behind in its own dry dust. The rate of solar installations on Australian homes now greatly outdoes the global average, placing Aussies ahead of Germany, Japan, and America’s solar-leading state of California. But is it true you can actually power your entire home using solar energy? Is that possible or is this actually a bit far-fetched? Yes, it is true. Your whole home can be powered by the sun if your solar generation matches your energy consumption and you have a reliable way to store the energy you’ve gathered during the day from the sun.

As more Australians are moving towards solar power and home battery storage, you may be wondering which option is right for you.

This guide will help you understand why you should work with a Brisbane battery storage company like Solahart to invest in solar batteries, as well as what different options may be best for your home or office.

Understanding the Benefits of Solar Battery Storage
Battery storage is a great way to save money and enhance the energy savings that you can obtain from your solar panel system.
For most homeowners with solar panels, the energy produced is often sent right back to the grid if not used right away. This means that the local utilities are benefitting from your solar energy – not you!

You can eliminate this and save more for yourself by adding a home battery storage system to your home. During the day your Solar Panels will produce power, a battery system allows you to store the unused energy so you can use it at night when the sun is no longer shining.
When you work with a Brisbane battery storage installer such as Solahart, you will have access to additional power for evenings, during blackouts, and to help combat the cost of rising electricity and utility bills as they become more expensive.

Different Battery Options Available
There are three primary battery options available: Tesla Powerwall 2, BYD Battery Box HV, and LG Chem RESU10H.

Tesla Powerwall 2
The Tesla Powerwall 2 is a powerful option when it comes to solar batteries. It is a lithium-ion battery pack that has a storage capacity of 13.5 kWh. This option is compact and scalable and comes with a built-in inverter that makes for a simple installation. It also looks great on any wall or can be floor mounted instead.
Since it has such a high energy density, it also offers a reduced footprint. Besides being aesthetically pleasing, this solar storage system can be added to any existing solar system and requires almost no maintenance. These systems also serve as emergency backup power for your essential energy loads.

BYD Battery Box HV
Your next option is the BYD Battery Box HV. An innovative solar storage system, this unit is one of the leaders in home batteries around the world. It is sleek and stylish, so it is a perfect choice for homeowners that want an affordable but high-quality system that can scale as your needs change.

These solar batteries are designed for a three-phase home – you can start with one module, then add additional stacks for extra capacity as your energy needs grow.

BYD Battery Box HV
The third battery storage option available is the LG Chem RESU10H. This affordable but high-quality solar storage system uses lithium-ion energy and has a capacity of 8.8 kWh.
These batteries are wall-mounted and are compatible with the SolarEdge inverters. The DC-coupled solution offers very high-efficiency and can help you power your home when the sun doesn’t shine or utility rates are expensive.

Your hot water usage is one of the biggest bills your home incurs, especially if you love those long showers. That is why solar hot water can really help but what if you heated your water the smart way? Do you think you could save even more? Let’s find out!

How can I heat my water the smart way?

Easy! By using a Solahart Powerstore! This water heater is great as it not only allows you to use free energy from the sun, it stores your excess solar energy from your solar power system and converts it into hot water instead of feeding it back to the grid.

The Solahart Powerstore has a large thermal energy storage capacity of 13kWh making it perfect for storing large amounts of unused energy to heat your water. Combine this with smart controls that detect when there is excess solar power and you have a system that will save you heaps!

How is the Solahart Powerstore different from other water heaters?

The Solahart Powerstore uses variable power to heat your water instead of fixed power like standard electric hot water systems. This allows it to be compatible with your solar power system and the energy that feeds from it into the Powerstore’s tank.

The Solahart Powerstore utelises two heating units instead of one, which is usually what standard electric water heaters come with. The first element at the top of the tank heats water even without excess energy feeding in from your solar power system. However, when there is excess solar power it will feed into the Solahart Powerstore and activate both the top and bottom heating units in the tank.

Does it work with an energy home management system?

YES! You can easily connect your Solahart Powerstore to an energy home management system. This allows you to use energy when the demand for electricity isn’t at its peak so you save money on what you use from the grid.

Using an energy home management system with your Solahart Powerstore will also allow you to track your usage. This will allow you to determine what and when your system is using energy and possibly who if you have a little hot shower bug!

Will this help me save?

Most definitely! The Powerstore is equipped to provide you with hot water when there is excess solar power generated and, when combined with an energy home management system, will calculate when it is the best time to heat your water.

As the Solahart Powerstore uses solar energy it saves you money by using free energy from the sun and reduces your impact on the environment. It also helps to reduce your hot water bill and the energy usage needed to heat your water.

Solar batteries are a great way to store your extra solar power and save money. They allow you to utilize the extra electricity at times when your solar power system isn’t generating energy including when it is nighttime. This allows you to rely less on the grid and save on your power bills while still enjoying your technological comforts.

What solar batteries are there? 

There are different types of solar batteries that you can have installed in your home. These include battery packs, stackable systems and our very own Solahart Powerstore. Depending on your needs will depend on the system you choose.

Standard solar battery packs are great if you generate a lot of electricity, which is then stored for you to use later. This is one of the most common options for those looking to install a solar battery. The stackable option is also great as it allows you to start off small and if your needs change you can increase or decrease the modules. Finally our Solahart Powerstore is perfect for those looking to use their extra energy for their hot water system so you can have a hot bath in the afternoon without worrying about the amount of money it costs. 

Power Usage Vs Storage 

Before deciding on a solar battery to purchase you need to know what your usage is and the excess energy you are losing. This will allow you to accurately assess your needs and therefore make an informed decision about which solar battery to purchase.

When it comes to the storage of your solar battery you want to make sure it has enough for your needs but not too much that it seems like a waste of money. You can ask your solar battery installer for information about your power usage and what battery might suit but also do your homework so you have everything you need. 

Which battery is best for me? 

Depending on your needs, your electricity usage and your storage requirements will depend on the type of solar battery you need. If you generate a large amount of excess energy then a standard solar battery pack will suit you. If you are unsure about battery storage or you don’t generate too much energy then a stackable system might be right for your home. If you are looking to upgrade your hot water system our Solahart Powerstore would be the best option.

Is A Solar Battery Right For You?

  • Under : Solar Battery Storage, Uncategorized

Solar battery storage systems are the latest technology to hit the solar market. With different types of solar batteries to choose from it can be hard to make a decision. However, is battery storage the right choice for you?

This decision should be made based on the electricity consumption of your household and whether solar battery storage will help you save. If you are thinking about purchasing a solar battery for the sake of it then it might not be the best fit for you.

What do Brisbane solar battery storage systems do?

Solar battery storage systems work with your solar power system to convert excess electricity into stored energy instead of feeding it back into the grid. This allows your home to use this excess electricity when your solar power system isn’t generating electricity for your household. This enables you to save money during peak times in the morning and afternoon when electricity is in high demand.

Solar battery storage systems are easily installed both inside and outside the home and can be connected to new and existing solar power systems. This makes them both functional and versatile with some Brisbane solar battery storage systems including modular units, which you can add or subtract from depending on your needs.

How does solar battery storage benefit me?

When it comes to saving money on your electricity bill Brisbane solar battery storage systems can be a better option at saving than feed in tariffs. This is only the case for those who generate more electricity during times when their solar power system isn’t generating electricity for their home.

You will receive more value for money from storing your electricity and using it later than relying on feed in tariffs. This is because your electricity company pays you less per kilowatt in feed in tariffs than they are worth when you generate and use the electricity yourself.

Is solar battery storage right for my home?

Solar battery storage systems are not for everyone and can cost you more than save you money. This is why you need to consider if it is right for you. A few ways you can do this is to determine the price of the system, your consumption and whether it will help you save.

If your solar battery storage system will cost you or make you break even on your investment then it is not right for you. This is because your consumption is less than those that would benefit from solar battery storage or you use most of your electricity generated by your solar power system while it is working making your battery storage system useless.

For those that have high consumption rates early in the morning or late at night solar battery storage can be a great money saver. It allows your excess electricity to be stored instead of feeding back into the grid, which gives you more value for money for your generated electricity. This, in turn, saves you more on your electricity and allows you to use it when you need it most.

You can order a Brisbane solar battery storage system from a reputable Redlands solar company on 07 3390 1590.
