Recently we installed an advanced AC-coupled battery storage system and EV charger for a homeowner. This setup allows the customer to maximise savings by leveraging cheap, off-peak electricity while maintaining full control through a cloud-based system.

Project Specifications

Battery storage capacity

We installed a robust 19.0kWh battery storage system alongside an inverter in the customer’s garage. This setup ensures a substantial energy reserve for daily household usage.

Utilising Off-Peak Electricity

By charging the batteries overnight using a cheap night-time tariff, the system provides cost-effective power during the day, significantly reducing energy expenses.

EV charger integration

In addition to the battery system, we installed an EV charger, fully integrated with the batteries and inverter. The setup is managed through a single cloud-based portal for seamless operation and control.

Challenges and Solutions

No solar panels? No problem!

This project demonstrates how homeowners can enjoy the benefits of energy storage without solar panels. The system is designed to work independently, drawing power from the grid during off-peak hours.

Full system integration

To ensure compatibility and efficiency, the EV charger, batteries, and inverter were linked through a unified system, allowing the customer to monitor and control energy usage with ease.

Expected Outcomes and Benefits

Substantial energy savings

The customer anticipates saving approximately 75% on their electricity bills annually, thanks to the smart use of off-peak electricity.

Convenient energy management

The cloud-based portal offers complete oversight and control of the system, enabling the customer to optimise energy usage effortlessly.

Future-proof setup

The integration of the EV charger with the battery system ensures that the setup is scalable and adaptable to future needs.

Step-by-Step Installation Process

Site assessment

Our team evaluated the garage space and the customer’s energy requirements to design a tailored solution.

Equipment selection

High-capacity batteries, an efficient inverter, and a compatible EV charger were chosen for their reliability and performance.

Installation and testing

The system was installed and rigorously tested to ensure smooth operation and integration across all components.

Key Takeaways

This project highlights how innovative energy solutions like battery storage and EV charger integration can dramatically reduce electricity costs, even without solar panels. It’s a scalable, efficient setup designed for maximum convenience and savings.
