Residential Battery Storage

Battery storage is the perfect partner to your solar panels, helping you make the most of the energy you generate.

By storing excess electricity produced during the day, you can power your home in the evening or at night, reducing your reliance on the grid and increasing your energy independence.

At Eco Power Innovations, we design and install high-performance battery systems tailored to your home and lifestyle. Whether you’re looking to maximise your savings or take full control of your energy use, our lithium-ion solutions deliver efficiency, reliability, and long-term peace of mind.

What is battery storage?

Battery storage allows you to store the electricity your solar panels generate during the day so you can use it later, even when the sun isn’t shining. This helps you use more of your own renewable power, lower your bills, and get the best possible return from your solar system.

How does residential battery storage work?

When your solar panels produce more electricity than you need, the excess is stored in your battery. When your panels aren’t generating power, for example, in the evening, your home automatically draws from the stored energy first, reducing the amount of electricity you buy from the grid.

What type of batteries do we install?

We only use lithium-ion batteries, the most efficient, compact, and long-lasting technology available for homes today. Lithium-ion batteries are proven to deliver reliable performance, fast charging, and excellent value for money.

What are the benefits of residential battery storage?

  • Use your own solar energy day and night

  • Reduce electricity bills even further

  • Lower reliance on the grid

  • Gain protection against rising energy costs

  • Improve your home’s energy efficiency

How it works

How much does battery storage cost?

The cost of battery storage depends on system size and your household energy usage. As a guide, residential systems start from £3,000–£6,000, with every quote tailored to your property and solar setup.

FAQs

How long will a 10kW battery power a house?+

The length of time a 10kW battery can power a home depends on your energy usage. On average, it could cover a typical home’s electricity needs for 8 – 12 hours, but this varies if you have high-demand appliances. Batteries are designed to store excess solar energy and provide power when you need it most, like evenings or during peak demand.

Is it worth having battery storage with solar panels?+

Yes! Battery storage is often a beneficial addition to a solar PV system. However, it’s not the right solution for every situation, and this can be discussed during a site survey.

What size battery do I need for my house?+

The right battery size depends on your household energy usage, solar system size, and how much power you want to store. During a site survey, we assess your electricity needs and recommend a size that will give you the best balance of savings, efficiency, and energy independence.

Do batteries work in winter and cold weather?+

Yes! Lithium-ion batteries are designed to work in a wide range of temperatures, including cold weather. While extreme cold can slightly reduce performance, your battery will still store and provide power effectively throughout the winter.

Can I use my battery during a power cut?+

Yes, most battery systems can provide power during a blackout. However, it is a legal requirement that any circuits powered by a battery during a power cut must be independently earthed from the incoming supply.

How do I monitor my battery system?+

You can monitor your battery system easily on the app, which we also have access to allow us to inspect remotely should there be any issues. The manufacturer also has access to the system for additional support if needed.

What maintenance do battery systems require?+

Battery systems require very little maintenance. It’s a good idea to keep them clean and check for any visible damage. We also monitor all systems remotely, so any issues can be spotted and addressed quickly, ensuring your battery runs efficiently for years.

What grants are available for battery storage? +

Battery storage is 0% VAT, and grant availability depends on your location and circumstances. We can guide you through the options available to help make your battery installation more affordable.

Can battery storage work without solar panels?+

Yes! With an AC-coupled system, a battery can store electricity from the grid even without solar panels. This allows you to use cheaper off-peak electricity, reduce bills, and maintain energy independence.

How long do battery systems last?+

Lithium-ion battery systems come with a 10-year guarantee. How long they continue to operate after this period depends on usage and charging patterns.
