Battery Storage
Smarter Energy, Day and Night
Store Your Solar Power for When You Need It
Get more from your solar power system with home battery storage from Solahart Spencer Gulf.
A solar battery allows you to store excess electricity generated by your solar panels during the day and use it later, when your household needs it most.
Instead of relying as heavily on electricity from the grid in the evening and overnight, you can make greater use of the renewable energy generated right on your own roof.
Store more of your solar energy and take greater control of your household power with Solahart Spencer Gulf.
Don't Let Your Excess Solar Go to Waste
Make More of Your Solar Energy
Solar panels often produce their greatest amount of electricity during the middle of the day, when household energy consumption may be relatively low.
Without battery storage, excess solar electricity that isn't being used by your home is generally exported to the electricity grid.
A home battery provides another option.
Excess solar energy can be stored in your battery and made available later, helping you use more of your own solar generation and purchase less electricity from the grid.
Use Solar After Sunset
Store electricity generated during daylight hours and use it during the evening or overnight.
Maximise Your Solar Investmen
A battery can help you retain and use more of the electricity your existing solar system generates.
Reduce Grid Reliance
Make greater use of your own renewable energy instead of purchasing as much electricity from the grid.
Greater Energy Security
Compatible battery systems can provide backup power to selected household circuits during a power outage, depending on the system design and installation.

How Does Battery Storage Work?
During daylight hours, your solar panels generate electricity to power your home.
When your solar system produces more electricity than your household is using, the excess energy can be directed into your battery.
Once the battery is charged, the stored electricity can be used when your solar panels aren't generating enough to meet household demand – such as during the evening, overnight or on days with lower solar production.
If your battery reaches its storage capacity, additional excess solar electricity can generally be exported to the grid.
The result is a smarter way to manage the energy generated by your solar system.
Your Battery Questions Answered
Battery Storage FAQs
Is a solar battery worth installing?
A battery can be particularly beneficial for households that generate excess solar electricity during the day but use significant electricity during the evening and overnight.
The potential benefit depends on your individual energy usage, solar generation, electricity tariffs, battery size and installation costs
Can a battery work without solar panels?
Some battery systems can charge using electricity from the grid, but batteries are commonly combined with solar panels so renewable electricity generated during the day can be stored and used later.
Can I install a battery with my existing solar panels?
Often, yes. Compatibility will depend on your existing inverter, solar system and the battery you choose. Solahart Spencer Gulf can assess your current system and explain the available options.
Will a battery power my home during a blackout?
Some battery systems offer backup capability when correctly configured for it. Backup functionality varies between products and installations, so it's important to discuss this requirement when your system is being designed.
How long will a home battery last during a blackout?
This depends on the amount of stored energy available and how much electricity you're using.
Running a few essential appliances will consume considerably less energy than attempting to power an entire household, so backup duration can vary significantly.
Can I increase my battery capacity later?
Some battery systems are expandable, allowing additional storage capacity to be added as your household requirements grow.
If future expansion is important to you, Solahart Spencer Gulf can recommend systems that provide greater flexibility.
Can I monitor my battery's performance?
Many modern home battery systems provide app-based monitoring, allowing you to view information such as solar generation, household electricity consumption, battery charge levels and grid usage.
What size battery should I choose?
The right battery size depends on your solar generation and household electricity consumption rather than simply choosing the largest available battery.
Our team can assess your energy usage and recommend an appropriately sized solution.
