Solar Battery Installation Brisbane and Redlands

Cut power bills, ride through blackouts and use more of your own solar. At Solair Electrical, we design and install home battery systems across Brisbane and the Redlands — sized to your habits, your switchboard and your future plans (EV charging, air con, growing families).

We don’t do one-size-fits-all boxes. We build battery systems that are safe, compliant and properly matched to your home — so you actually get the performance and payback you’re expecting.

A few more examples of the neat workmanship you can expect — from premium solar installs to high-capacity storage systems.


Why Add a Battery to Your Solar?

  • Use more of your own solar at night instead of buying peak-rate power from the grid.
  • Keep essentials running during outages (fridge, lights, modem, some GPOs) with an EPS/backup circuit.
  • Reduce bill shock with time-of-use shifting and smarter consumption.
  • See everything in one app — battery state of charge, consumption, solar production and alerts.

At-a-glance:

  • Great fit for typical 6.6–15kW solar homes using most power mornings/evenings.
  • Best value when feed-in tariffs are low and import tariffs are higher.
  • Backup supply available for selected essential circuits (planned at site check).

Right Battery, Right Size — No Guesswork

Every home is different. We always complete a thorough on-site inspection.

To get payback and performance, your system must match your usage and your switchboard. If your board is older or overloaded, we’ll recommend a switchboard upgrade first — it’s the foundation for safe battery backup and clean, compliant solar integration.

Already have solar and it’s under-performing? We can diagnose faults, replace failed components and get your system producing again with our Brisbane and Redlands solar repairs service.

And if you’re starting from scratch, we’ll design the battery around a quality PV layout from day one — see our solar installations for what we recommend on Brisbane and Redlands rooftops.

What we check

  • Daily usage profile: bills, smart-meter or inverter data (day vs night split).
  • Peak loads & backup needs: fridges, lighting, comms, pumps, medical devices.
  • Existing solar & switchboard: inverter type, spare capacity, RCDs, surge, MEN location.
  • Tariff & retailer plan: time-of-use, demand charges, feed-in rate.
  • Site conditions: ventilation, clearances, indoor/outdoor location to AS/NZS 5139.

Battery Brands We Install

We supply and install quality battery systems and recommend the right fit based on your solar, budget and backup goals.


Cheaper Home Batteries Program (Now Running)

Government discount to cut your upfront cost

From 1 July 2025, the Australian Government’s Cheaper Home Batteries Program provides around a 30% discount on eligible small-scale home and small-business batteries.

Key points

Solar Battery FAQ

How long does installation take?
Most Brisbane/Redlands homes are completed in 1 day including commissioning and app setup; complex backup wiring can extend this.
Will my solar still work in a blackout?
Yes — with an EPS/backup circuit, essential loads run from the battery and any available solar. We’ll help you choose which circuits.
Can I get the Cheaper Home Batteries discount?
If your battery and install meet program rules (capacity, standards, approved supplier), you may receive ~30% off up-front via us as your installer. We’ll confirm eligibility during your site visit.
What maintenance is required?
Batteries are sealed. We recommend an annual service to check firmware, ventilation and performance.
Do you service my area?
Yes — Brisbane, Redlands, Logan, Ipswich, Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast.
