Case Study (Retrofit 10kwh Battery)
$0 Bill Battery VS. Traditional Battery

John and Jill live in NSW and are looking to add a 10kWh retrofit battery to their existing 6kW solar system. 

  • Current Electricity Price (2023 Q1) - $0.32/kwh

  • Current Supply Charge (2023 Q1) - $1.10/day

  • Electricity Price Increase (Inflation Estimation) - 7% a year

  • Customer Eligible for our $0 bill program (10 years term)

  • Usable Power from Battery: 95%

*To ensure accuracy, please consult with an SE designer for a complimentary proposal, as the Usage Plan may vary based on different states and locations.

Traditional Standard
10kwh Solar Battery

Based on the installation of a traditional 10kWh solar battery, the customer can expect to experience approximately a 10% loss in maximum savings due to the battery's inability to fully charge during cloudy days or when high-power appliances like air conditioning or microwave are used, which exceed the maximum discharge rate of the battery.

Additionally, the efficiency of the battery deteriorates each year, with an average degradation rate of 30% over 10 years, as specified in most battery warranty terms.

The maximum savings that the customer can expect to achieve in the 1st year can be calculated as follows:

9.5kWh x $0.32 x 365 days x 90% = $998.64
max savings in the first year

10kwh Solar Battery

The customer in this solution has an existing 6.6kW solar panel system and is adding a 10kWh battery. The customer is able to use our retrofit booster usage plan which is a total of 400kWh per month from both the battery and the grid, and the supply charge is fully covered at 100%.

As a backup, the grid provides free electricity, so the inability of the battery to fully charge during cloudy days or when high-power appliances like air conditioning or microwave are in use and exceed the maximum discharge rate of the battery, does not affect the customer's electricity bill savings.

Each year, the battery efficiency deteriorates, but this can be offset by using the free electricity from the grid. As a result, the customer's 1st year electricity bill savings are as follows:

400kwh x 12 months x $0.32 + $1.1 x 365 = $1,937.50
max savings in the first year

Same Size Battery. Same Price
In just the 1st year.
