What size solar battery do I Need?

In general, a battery size of 8 to 15kWh will suit most average (3-bedroom) homes with adequate solar. However, the right battery size depends on your daily energy usage (kWh) and backup power needs. If you already have solar, your system monitoring or electricity bill will show how much power you use and export to the grid each day.

Which solar battery should I buy?

The right choice comes down to a mix of your solar system size, your daily energy usage, and how much backup you need during blackouts. For example, the Tesla Powerwall 2 has been one of the most popular batteries in Australia and North America for years, thanks to its large 13.5 kWh capacity and good track record.

What makes a good home battery?

Modularity and Scalability - The good news is that most modern home batteries are modular. This means you can start with a smaller system (e.g. 5–10 kWh) and expand later as your household energy use grows, such as when you add a home EV charger, pool heating, or more appliances.
