A digital study of whether a home battery suits you: usage and interval data analysis, battery sizing, backup needs, federal discount, VPP options and payback.
From $199 (Per property ($199-$399)), including GST. Indicative starting price: the final fixed price is confirmed in writing after a site assessment.
A home battery can be excellent value or an expensive mistake, depending on how much surplus solar you have, how much you use in the evening, your tariff and whether you need backup power. A battery that is too small leaves savings on the table, while one that is too large may have capacity that rarely gets used.
Our Battery Feasibility Study analyses your real usage, ideally from smart meter interval data, to find the battery size that fits your home. We look at backup needs, the federal battery discount, VPP options and estimated payback, then present clear options. The study starts from $199 per property. This is an indicative starting price; the final fixed price is confirmed in writing before we begin, based on the data available and the scenarios you want modelled.
We install Sigenergy, GoodWe, Fox ESS and Sungrow batteries, so our sizing reflects how real systems perform in Sydney homes. We will tell you if a battery doesn't stack up for you yet. If you proceed with us, the study fee is credited against your installation, which always starts with a real in-home site assessment. Blue Energy Solar is a New Energy Tech Approved Seller.
Solar owners and new solar buyers deciding whether a battery is worth it, what size to choose and how incentives apply.
Verified incentive facts. The federal Cheaper Home Batteries Program offers roughly 30% off the installed cost of a battery installed with solar, at approximately $272 per kWh for the first 14 kWh, $163 per kWh from 14 to 28 kWh and $41 per kWh from 28 to 50 kWh, stepping down every 1 January and 1 July to 2030. The NSW household battery installation incentive has been suspended since 30 June 2025. From 1 July 2026, NSW offers up to $1,000 for connecting an existing battery to a VPP.
As a published guide, a 10 kWh battery in Sydney is $8,000-$11,000 after the federal discount, confirmed after a site assessment. Confirm current incentive values on the official pages before signing.
