Everything You Need to Know about the 2024 Battery Rebate
Posted 12 Apr
In addition to the uptake of Solar energy in the Newcastle and Hunter regions, solar battery storage for homes and businesses are becoming more mainstream with the beneficial advantages that solar energy storage provides.
Battery storage hosts a range of useful features to allow your property to reach the next level in its energy production and consumption like 24/7 backup energy, and maximising your solar investments.
Investing in solar battery storage provides a range of benefits for solar owners like reduced energy bills and carbon footprint, increased
independence, and better energy efficiency.
By using stored solar energy during peak times, homeowners can reduce their reliance on the grid and lower their energy bills. In some cases, homeowners may be able to completely eliminate their energy bills by using solar energy and battery storage.
Using solar energy and battery storage allows for more energy independence. They are no longer reliant on the grid for their energy needs and can generate their own electricity even during power outages
Using solar battery storage can also help improve energy efficiency. By storing excess solar energy during the day, you can use it at night when energy consumption is typically higher. This can help reduce overall energy consumption and lower energy bills.
Using solar energy and battery storage is an environmentally friendly choice that can help reduce a homeowner's carbon footprint. By reducing reliance on fossil fuels, homeowners can help reduce greenhouse gas emissions and combat climate change.
As time continues, batteries are becoming more accessible to property owners as the price decreases and the application demand increases.
New and existing solar owners are realising that battery storage helps them maximise and increase their solar investments.
Over the past 5 years, we have seen some great products release into the public eye, such as Tesla Powerwall 2.
Tesla Powerwall 2 is a fantastic example of energy storage that can be installed in less than a day and provide backup power 24/7 for
a long time. As batteries become cheaper, more people are considering installing one, and we find that now is a better time than ever
to consider investing in a battery for your home or business as there are not only huge savings to be made on your energy bill, but
there are opportunities to even make money, through services like Amber.
The other option is taking a look at Amber and how they can help you save, and in potentially even make money.
Traditional retailers sell electricity at a flat price, but all retailers buy electricity at the wholesale price. With Amber, you get access to this dynamic price, meaning you pay less when you use energy when it's greener and cheaper.
If you're wanting to do your research before contacting anyone, we recommend looking at a couple of things; budget, usage, location, and
compatibility. However, we can design and install a custom system for your home or business by uploading your
bill.
Choose a battery that is compatible with your solar panel system and has enough storage capacity to meet your energy needs.
Consider factors such as cost, warranty, and maintenance requirements when choosing a battery.
Track your energy consumption to determine how much energy you use and when you use it.
Or you can upload your bill and our experts can analyse it and design a system unique to your needs.
We can provide you with the optimal battery storage system designed for your home and energy usage. Working with a professional solar installer can help ensure that your solar panel system and battery storage are installed correctly and efficiently.
By using solar battery storage, homeowners can reduce their energy bills, increase energy independence, improve energy efficiency,
and reduce their carbon footprint.
With the right battery and a little bit of planning, you can enjoy the benefits of solar energy and battery storage for years to come.
If you are interested in installing a battery storage system, please get contact with one of our solar and battery professionals, and we
can help you find the best solution available.
