Looking to store that excess solar energy and be energy independent?

DID YOU KNOW?

The Benefits of Battery Storage

Energy Independence

Store excess energy from solar panels for use during peak demand hours or blackouts, reducing reliance on the grid and ensuring a reliable power supply. Take control of your energy needs.

Environmental Benefits

By embracing battery storage, you contribute to a cleaner and greener future. Minimise reliance on fossil fuels, reduce carbon emissions, and support renewable energy sources for a more sustainable planet.

Take Control and Save

Optimise energy consumption, reduce reliance on expensive grid electricity during peak demand hours, lower overall electricity bills, and stay in control of your energy usage. You are in control over your energy needs as grid electricity can be reduced by up to 100% with a suitable and reliable battery.

Battery Installs

At OneAU Energy, we specialise in providing top-quality battery installations tailored to the unique energy profile of your home or business. The process to design and install the battery follows this process:

Step1 - Assessment & Consultation

A professional from OneAU Energy visits your property to assess your energy needs, existing electrical setup, and solar generation capacity (if applicable). They discuss your energy goals, usage patterns, and any specific requirements you may have.

Step 2 - Design

Based on the assessment, our team designs a tailored battery storage system that aligns with your energy profile. This includes selecting the appropriate battery capacity, inverter, and other necessary components to ensure optimal performance and compatibility with your existing solar installation or electrical system.

Step 3 - Installation

Our experienced team install the battery system at your premises. This involves mounting the battery units, connecting them to the solar panels (if applicable), and integrating them into your electrical system. Safety policies and regulations are followed closely to ensure a safe and efficient installation

Step 4 - Configuration & Testing

Once the physical installation is complete, the battery system is configured and tested to ensure proper functionality. This includes setting up the battery management system, configuring energy management settings, and conducting performance tests.

Frequently Asked Questions

The amount you save depends on your energy usage, location, and the size of the system. On average, customers can reduce their electricity bills by up to 70%, with further savings by storing excess energy in a battery for later use.

Solar panels typically last 25-30 years, with minimal maintenance required. Modern batteries generally have a lifespan of 10-15 years, depending on usage and quality. Both are excellent long-term investments in energy efficiency.

Yes, it’s possible to run fully off solar with the right-sized system and battery storage. Most people choose a hybrid setup, using solar power during the day and stored battery power or grid electricity at night, to ensure consistent energy availability.

After an initial assessment of your energy needs, we design a system tailored to your property. The installation process can vary from 1-3 days to 4-6 weeks, depending on the size of the system. We handle everything from connect applications, engineering to the final commission and handover.

Yes, many governments offer incentives such as feed-in tariffs, tax credits, or grants to help reduce the cost of installing solar and battery systems. We can advise you on any available schemes and assist in applying for them.

A solar battery functions as a storage system for the electricity produced by solar panels. When sunlight shines on the solar panels installed on your roof, they harness the sun's energy and convert it into usable electricity. This electricity is primarily used to power your home or business, but there are instances when the solar panels generate more electricity than your immediate needs. Rather than letting this surplus energy go to waste, a solar battery comes into play by storing the excess electricity for future use. It is like having a container of stored power that you can tap into during times when solar production is insufficient, such as at night or on rainy days. This way, you can make the most of the energy your solar panels generate and maximise your reliance on clean, renewable solar power.

The lifespan of a battery storage system can vary depending on factors such as the type of battery technology, usage patterns, and maintenance. Generally, battery systems are designed to last for a certain number of charging and discharging cycles, typically ranging from 5 to 15 years. Our experts can provide more specific information about the expected lifespan of the battery storage system we offer.

When assessing if a battery is a good fit for your home or business, we consider the following

  • Energy use patterns – Do you use little energy during the day and substantial amounts at night?
  • Current Solar System Size – is there a greater excess of solar energy not being used and sent to the grid?
  • Grid Reliability – Is your home or business prone to outages caused by poor grid infrastructure or prone to blackouts caused by natural disasters?
  • Available Space – Some battery systems require varied installation requirements as well as protections (ie Bollards) that may take up more space
  • Your Energy Goals – Is your goal to reduce your carbon footprint? Do you have the desire to be energy independent?
  • Budget - Calculate the potential savings from reduced reliance on the grid during peak electricity rates, as well as the payback period for the battery investment.
