Integrate with Solar Panels
While your battery system can operate happily on it’s own and provide a great return on investment, combining with a solar system can help to increase your financial returns.
By integrating solar into your battery system you can take advantage of free electricity which you can store for when you need it most. This electricity enable you to reduce your bills and have more energy independence. Talk to us about whether your property is suitable for solar.
Power outage, no problem
One of the significant benefits of battery storage systems is their ability to provide power during a power cut. When the grid goes down, a well-installed battery system can automatically and instantaneously switch to stored energy, keeping your essential appliances and systems running. This ensures that you have a reliable backup power source, maintaining comfort and safety in your home even during extended power cuts.
If you worry about power cuts, battery storage systems offer peace of mind by providing uninterrupted power. They allow you to keep critical devices like lights, central heating, refrigerators, computer equipment and phones operational, ensuring that your daily life experiences minimal disruption. This capability enhances your home’s resilience and independence from the grid.
Talk to us about how your battery system can be configured to provide power to your critical circuits during a power cut.
Home Battery Case Study
This property in Newark, Nottinghamshire has solar panels from a decade ago but the owner wanted to increase the electricity being used in the property rather than being exported.
A simple battery retrofit was a low cost effective solution.

Frequently asked questions.
What is a standalone home battery system?
A standalone home battery system stores electricity from the grid (or other sources) for later use, this enables you to storage cheap electricity and use it at peak times.
Do I need solar panels to have a home battery system?
No, you don’t need solar panels for an effective battery installation. With flexible electricity tariffs you can save money by storing cheap electricity from the grid and using in your home at peak times.
How long can a battery power my home during a power cut?
The duration heavily depends on the battery’s capacity, your home’s energy consumption and the state of charge when the outage occurs. Typically, we would design and configure the system to power essential devices (lights, gas heating control/pumps, refrigerator) for several hours.
Can I save money with a home battery system?
Absolutely, by storing cheap electricity during off-peak hours and using it during peak times, you can significantly reduce your electricity bills giving you an attractive return on investment.
How do I know if a battery system is right for me?
We can assess your energy usage, possible electricity rates, and therefore your potential benefits. The greater your daytime electricity use, typically the more you can save.
What maintenance is required for home battery systems?
Home battery systems generally require minimal maintenance. Periodic checks and software updates ensure optimal performance.
Are there government incentives for installing home battery systems?
Yes, the government supports home battery system by allowing us to provide them with zero VAT.
How much does a home battery system cost?
Costs vary based on capacity and features. Prices typically range from £3000.
Can I expand my home battery system in the future?
Yes, many of the systems we install are modular and can be expanded by adding more batteries in the future as your energy needs grow.
