The size of the battery that you need will depend on things like the size of your home, how many people live there, and whether you have solar panels to generate electricity. The bigger the house and the more people that live in it, the higher your electricity usage is likely to be, meaning you’ll need a larger battery. 

Typically homes in the UK need a battery with a storage capacity between 10-15kWh - but the exact amount of storage needed will vary depending on your individual needs.

Yes, you can use a storage battery to store electricity from the grid and draw on this electricity during power outages or during peak demand when prices are higher. Using a battery in this way can save you money on your energy bills. However, to get the most out of your battery we recommend pairing it with solar panels so you can charge your battery separately from the grid.

All solutions will come with a partner app which allows you to monitor the performance of your solar and battery system. Within the app you can see how much energy is stored in the battery and how much is being consumed by your home.
