How batteries make solar power more affordable than ever

In recent years, solar energy has gained immense popularity as a clean and sustainable power source for Kiwi homes.The ability to harness the sun's energy to generate electricityheralds a new era of lower utility bills, lower household carbon footprints and energy independence for New Zealanders.

The upfront cost of solar installationcontinues to drop太阳能欧宝APP手机版电池板技术越来越复杂;the other game changer isbattery storage.

Let's look at how batteries can make your home solar investment go even further.

The role of solar batteries

Traditional solar power systems lacked an efficient way to store surplus energy produced during peak sunlight hours. With solar battery storage, homeowners can now store this excess energy, effectively making their solar system a 24/7 energy source. Solar batteries do require an initial investment, but it's crucial to understand that this cost directly contributes to the‘payback’of your solar energy in the long run.

Minimising reliance on grid electricity

对于太阳能的家庭,你仍然依赖欧宝APP手机版energy from the electricity grid at night time. A battery system will store excess solar power from the day, for use at night time, plus help ride out the price surges that come withhigher demand in winteror weather-relatedregional power outages, and essentially enable you to live ‘off-the-grid’!

Keep your phone charged, and no more puddles under the fridge during an outage.

Get paid for any unused stored energy

If you don’t use all of the energy you have stored in your battery, you can export the excess energy back to the grid, which can create an additional small income stream.
