You’ve probably heard about people talking about home batteries in the media lately – but does it make sense for you to invest in these now?
If you are one of the millions of home-owners in Australia who have already installed solar panels, it’s now more affordable than ever add a home battery and maximize the benefits of your solar panels, enabling you to store excess energy for use during peak hours or as a back-up during blackouts.
With a home battery, you get energy independence from ever-rising electricity costs and can avoid buying power at the times when electricity retailers apply costly “time-of-use” and “demand” tariffs. You can also reduce reliance on non-renewable fossil fuels, and as a bonus you get the security of protection from blackouts.
