Grid Connection
Your system maintains grid connection for flexibility while reducing dependence on it
- Use the grid as backup when solar and battery storage are depleted
- Export excess energy to the grid and earn credits on your power bill when your battery is fully charged
- Maintain power during extended cloudy periods or high usage
Real Savings with Hybrid Battery Solar
1. Cut your power bills in half
Solar energy costs less than half what you pay for grid electricity, immediately reducing your monthly power bills.
2. Get paid for excess energy
Energy retailers pay you 7-17c per kWh for surplus solar power, creating an additional income stream.
3. Lock in today's energy prices
While grid electricity costs continue to rise, your solar investment secures low energy costs for the next 25+ years.
4. Smart energy storage
Battery storage ensures resilience during outages and helps you avoid expensive peak-time electricity charges.
5. Earn returns other investments can't match
Solar consistently delivers double-digit returns, outperforming traditional investments like property, shares, and term deposits.

When HYBRID BATTERY SOLAR Is the right choice
Never lose power again while cutting your electricity bills. A hybrid battery system stores your solar energy for evening use and keeps your lights on during outages. Perfect for homes with unreliable grid connection or anyone wanting protection from rising power costs.
