Ever thought about boosting your solar setup with a battery? With rising power costs and shrinking feed-in tariffs, everyone’s pondering that tantalising “zero bill” dream.

The answer? “It depends.”

Every home is unique. A battery like the Tesla Powerwall offers robust energy storage.

However, zeroing out your bill depends on:

• The energy you’re currently sending back to the grid.
• Your nighttime energy use.
• Daily supply charges.
• The battery’s storage capacity.

For some, the numbers align for near-zero bills. Others might shave off expenses, ensure backup, or need to adopt more energy-efficient solutions as well, like heat pump hot water.

A battery lets you tap into renewable solar power around the clock. Whether that’s firing up the dishwasher in the evening or using the dryer for a quick clothes refresh, you can do so without the guilt and cost of peak power rates. It’s freedom powered by the sun!

And here’s a sunny thought: as energy costs climb, the payback on solar and batteries gets quicker, and with the move away from Gas to an all-electric future, we’ll soon see batteries as an everyday appliance.

Being battery-equipped sets you ahead. Less grid drama, consistent backup power, and a reduced carbon footprint – what’s not to love?

While we all aim for that bill with a big zero, the best fit for your home and lifestyle is key.
