Battery storage for solar

Solar panels with an inverter capture and convert the sun’s energy into usable electricity for your home.

• Solar panels capture the sun’s radiation and convert it into DC electricity, which is then converted to AC electricity by an inverter.
• Any excess electricity generated is directed to the solar battery – storing it for later use.
• The battery’s stored electricity can be used during non-daylight hours, in bad weather or during periods of high electricity usage.

Solar batteries can provide financial and environmental benefits, including:

• the ability to be retrofitted to many existing solar systems, meaning you may not need to install a whole new system, saving you money.
• up to an 80% reduction in energy bills, according to SolarHub. With an energy management system and ActewAGL's attractive solar feed-in tariff, excess electricity generated can be fed back into the grid, lowering your electricity bill.
• access to electricity supply, in the event that the grid goes down.

Various government incentives may be available to subsidise the cost of installing solar batteries. Request an obligation-free quote from the team at the SolarHub & ActewAGL Smart Energy Hub to find out how you can save with solar.
