How it works

Built around how your home uses power

Panels generate power during the day to run your home and charge the battery. The battery covers you at night and through load-shedding. Any shortfall is topped up from the grid, so you are never left in the dark.

Included in this type of system

  • Solar panels
  • Hybrid inverter
  • Lithium battery

Why it works

  • Lowest running cost: you generate your own power
  • Keeps essentials (and more) on during load-shedding
  • Protects appliances from surges when the grid returns
  • Can grow: add panels or battery later

What to consider

  • Higher up-front or monthly cost than a single-purpose system
  • Needs suitable roof space and orientation

Compare other home solar options

Battery backup only

Keep the lights, Wi-Fi and fridge on, without a full solar install.

Solar only (grid-tie)

Slash your daytime bill, best where load-shedding is less of a worry.
