Battery solar installations South Australia
With the Adelaide City Council providing a $5000.00 incentive to buy battery storage it’s no wonder South Australia is set to lead the way into the battery storage era. Plenty of sunshine combined with high electricity tariffs means storing your power in South Australia makes good sense.
South Australia has also expereinced several blackouts in 2016, including a statewide blackout that left homes and business powerless. Homes with Solar Battery Energy Storage were able to continue on, using the power they themselevs generated and were unaffected by the blackout.

These states all share the same challenges to provide the right situation in the market to make battery storage work. With lower available sunshine may cause longer payback, however with the combination of time of use billing with tariff arbitrage cheap off-peak power potential payback periods may become reduced.

Battery and solar installations in Queensland
It is in Queensland that battery energy storage can really change the game. With very high daytime household power consumption from air coolers and pool pumps, coupled with a large amount of sunlight solar and battery storage makes sense.

Battery and solar installations in the Northern Territory
With more families in Darwin staying in the home out of the heat the ATA has suggested that soon it will be financially beneficial to have a 4kW solar with 4kWh storage. How the electricity is supplied the system is under pressure from cloudy days. Particularly when the cloud cover is fast moving and hard to predict. Ideally the RESU 6.5 kWh battery will become a popular option but to cover short time power disruptions is what will work best for the north. The Northern Territory Governments $2000.00 vouchers to householders can use this for battery storage.
