Frequently Asked Questions
Will any battery work with my existing solar?
Compatibility depends on your current inverter. Most modern hybrid inverters support DC-coupled battery additions. AC-coupled batteries like the Tesla Powerwall work with virtually any existing solar system.
What's the best battery brand for SA?
Sungrow, Goodwe, and Tesla Powerwall are the most commonly installed in SA. Each offers strong warranty coverage and local support.
Is a battery worth it in SA?
With SA having some of the highest electricity prices in Australia, battery storage can significantly reduce grid imports, especially for evening usage when solar isn't generating.
Do I need to upgrade my solar inverter for a battery?
Depends on your current setup. A Jousto estimate will assess your existing system and recommend whether an inverter upgrade is needed.
