Battery Storage

There are many reasons why a home battery may be beneficial for homeowners.
At Total Solar Solutions Australia we know that every home is different which is why we offer multiple battery options such as Tesla, BYD and LG Chem
The benefits of storing your own electricity are many, including the ability to:

Improve your energy security (eg. blackout protection)
Slash your electricity bills even further
Dramatically reduce your carbon footprint
Become energy independent
Protect yourself from power price increases

TESLA Powerwall

TESLA Powerwall is a battery for your home which allows you to store power. Connected to a solar system, it stores excess power produced by the solar system which has not been used in your home.

A solar system is a ‘use it or lose it’ resource. If your solar system generates more electricity than you need to power your home, the excess is fed into the grid. After dark, the panels stop producing power and then you buy power from the grid for your homes’ energy consumption.

By storing your excess solar power using Powerwall, your homes solar generation becomes an all day resource, decreasing reliance on the grid during the evening hours, or in the event of a black out. If the battery is full, the excess electricity is fed back to the grid.

Powerwall detects power outages and will automatically become your homes energy source when the grid goes down. Reducing your reliance on the grid reduces your electricity costs and your homes carbon footprint.

The TESLA Powerwall is connected to the TESLA app, where you can monitor your home’s energy production and consumption in real time. You can set your preferences to optimise your energy independence, outage protection or savings. Instant alerts and remote access allow you to control your system from anywhere.

A Powerwall system consists of at least one Powerwall battery and a Backup Gateway. The Backup Gateway provides energy management, metering and monitoring functions for Powerwall. It controls connection to the grid, safely disconnects your home and starts backup operation during an outage. The Backup Gateway includes communication functions for up to 10 Powerwall units, and receives updates for the system via a Wi-Fi connection.

The Powerwall comes with a 10-year warranty. Tesla guarantees the battery will maintain at least 70 percent of its capacity to hold charge during that time period.
