Energy storage is a smart way to offset your electricity costs. With a solar battery, you can maximise your solar energy usage, minimise your reliance on the grid and further reduce your energy bills.
Solahart Newcastle can help you choose the configuration that best suits your needs. Batteries in our range include the Tesla Powerwall, SolarEdge and GoodWe batteries.
Deep Family, Windella, NSW
Solahart Newcastle helped the Deep family by installing a new 9.76kW system with a SolarEdge inverter and a Tesla Powerwall 2 battery storage system into their four bedroom home in Windella, as they wanted to reduce their energy bills, but also become a lot more self sufficient when it came to their energy reproduction.
This 9.76kW solar system delivers up to 43.92kW of their energy requirements each day and stores any unused energy for use at night, saving the Deep’s an average of $900 or more a quarter, with every energy bill coming in at under $100.
The battery storage system was installed inside their garage to give them up to 13.5kW of energy if required. The Deep family also replaced their gas hot water system with a Solahart Roof Top Hot Water System, helping them lead a more sustainable lifestyle.
Solahart can sell, install and service solar battery storage products including new solar panels & inverters to help you maximise the savings you can make from switching to solar energy usage.
Our solar battery storage range is available in different specifications to suit different applications or capacities.
A solar battery is a storage device that stores energy generated by solar panels. Solar panels convert sunlight into electricity, and this electricity can either be used immediately or stored in a solar battery for later use. This allows homeowners and businesses to use solar energy even when the sun isn’t shining, like during the night, on cloudy days, or during power outages.
Battery storage systems for the fall into three main categories:
• DC Coupled
• AC Coupled
• Hybrid
Retrofitting is possible, however, those purchasing new systems are encouraged to purchase a Hybrid inverter, for direct battery connection now or later.
Each option has benefits and drawbacks, but Solahart has a team of experienced professionals who can provide advice so that you buy the right products & get them installed professionally for home or business needs.

The cost of a solar battery storage in Newcastle will vary depending on the size, brand, capacity & the type of application it is being used on.
Getting a price for the cost of a solar battery storage system installed is only one part of the puzzle though and it will not provide you a solar energy solution.
The Solahart Newcastle team can provide you with a solar panel cost that includes installation as well as the set up of an inverter that will convert your solar energy into usable electricity.
Depending on the site, type of products chosen and the installation requirements the cost of a solar panel installation will vary.
Watch these video tesimonials from our customers who talk about the actual savings they made 6 to 9 months after the installation of their new Solahart solar power system.
We have even more examples and reviews from hundreds of customers living in Newcastle who now use solar energy to reduce their power bills.
Michael’s energy bills are around $800-$900 in Spring and in Summer they are around $1,400. After having Solahart Newcastle install solar panels at his property, Michael expects to receive a bill with zero balance with part of their gas bill paid off due to the arrangement that’s been set up with their provider where any surplus from the electricity will pay off the gas.
Rod had solar panels installed to help with he cost of his heater pump for his pool along with saving money on his electricity bill. After the first quarter Rod didn’t have to pay anything on his bill and received money back from AGL.
Nathan no longer wanted to pay large energy bills and was really impressed that the Solahart Panels were slick and blended straight into his roof. Nathan calculated that he would pay off the cost of his solar panels in two to four years with the savings from his current bills.
Jackie is one of our happy customers who heard about Solahart Newcastle from her neighbour. She had observed that not only her neighbour but almost everyone that lived around her had solar and after talking to several people in the area she realised that everyone she spoke to had used Solahart Newcastle so this was a great recommendation for her.

At Solahart Newcastle, every solar battery storage installation is a meticulous process of planning, execution, and support. We walk with you from the initial consultation, through the customisation of solutions, to installation and beyond.
A solar power installation does keep your home connected to the public power grid so that when you generate more electricity than you need it can be fed back into the grid.
Alternatively, you can purchase more electricity when your solar panels aren’t able to generate as much electricity as you need.
When you get battery storage installed in your home it allows you to store your excess solar energy and use it when you need instead of sending it to the grid.
At night time, when your solar panel system is not producing power, you can use battery power to run your home, and in the event of a power outage, some batteries can provide you with back-up electricity for a period of time, depending on their capacity.
At Solahart Newcastle, we install and recommend only the highest quality battery storage systems from Tesla, GoodWe and SolarEdge for the most efficient energy storage.
Excess solar energy produced during the day is sold back to the retailer for a fraction of what home owners pay.
Now battery storage systems will enable home owners to store their excess energy and use it at peak times, like late afternoon.
This increases self consumption of solar energy and improves the return from a solar power system.
Battery storage systems can be configured to provide backup power in the event of an outage.
Home owners can choose to run their whole house, or configure essential circuits – like lights, fridges, security, fire alarms, internet or medical equipment.
This is perfect for people in remote or unreliable power areas or for those who can’t risk losing power.
Almost all energy providers offer time of use tariffs. These tariffs charge a premium for energy during peak times, like the middle of the day in summer, while offering lower rates during non peak times.
Battery storage systems enable homes to purchase and store energy at non peak times and use it at peak times, reducing their energy costs.

They are also useful in situations where there are power outages or costs escalate due to increased demand or peak usage times.
For some people the ability to reduce their reliance on the grid is worth more than just the financial gains they can make from reducing their bills. It can create a sense of independence and self sufficiency which contributes to a more sustainable way of life.
The operating life of our range of products can be 10 years or more depending on the model and application which gives you great peace of mind.
Whether a certain amount of energy is enough to run a household will depend on just exactly how you consume energy & the products that have to be powered. Our team can assess your situation to give you guidance on what may be suitable.
Similar to the previous question relating to 10kW being enough or not – the quantity of panels or batteries isn’t the most important factor as they all come in different shapes, sizes, capacities & efficiency levels. So depending on the specification & your application the quantity required will vary.
Our team can assess your situation to give you guidance on what may be suitable.
