A home battery stores the solar you'd otherwise export for a few cents and uses it at night when power costs the most.

We assess electricity use, existing solar, switchboard capacity, backup priorities and compliant battery positions before recommending a system. The quote covers sizing, installation, connection, commissioning and available rebate paperwork. For battery types, backup options, sizing and installation details, see the full detail on battery storage.
Around 2600 people per square kilometre in Canterbury means detached homes with a board that can usually take a battery circuit with minor work. Sitting at about 70 metres, Canterbury has the standard suburban layout where a battery goes on a garage wall out of the afternoon sun.
Canterbury is about 10 kilometres from the CBD, where smaller roofs limit how much you can charge. A large battery on a small array spends most of its life half empty. Canterbury is in Boroondara. A battery install needs no planning permit in the ordinary case. It does need correct clearances under the installation standard, and the distributor notified, and we handle both.
Given how close Canterbury sits to Balwyn and Camberwell, a follow-up visit usually costs you nothing extra in travel. Canterbury is postcode 3126, roughly 3 square kilometres of Boroondara, and held 7800 residents at the 2021 census.
Local context worth knowing: == History == The railway station is in many ways responsible for the suburb's existence: before the opening of the railway to the City in 1882, the area was a semi-rural area. Housing age is a fair guide to roof form and therefore to how much the array can charge. Canterbury sits within a group of suburbs we are in constantly: Balwyn, Camberwell, Hawthorn East and Kew East.
Our workshop is in Boronia, 18.7 kilometres west of Canterbury. That proximity is the whole reason we can hold a fixed quote rather than pricing in the unknown. Adding to that: The first subdivision in the area came in 1885, when Michael Logan created the 'Claremont Park Estate' within the area of Canterbury Road, Bryson Street, Prospect Hill Road and Logan Street.
Something else that shows up in the housing here: In 1900 Snowden's estate was subdivided and sold off to form what is now Monomeath Avenue and residents such as notable architect Percey Kernot and prominent citizen George Coghill moved in.

Ryan and Jack did a great job doing the electrical work on my new 4 head split system. They got the job done in no time, and my split systems were up and running. Once connected, Ryan made sure all 4 heads were working. Thanks guys, great job!

No. Canterbury is about 18.7 kilometres west of our Boronia workshop, well inside the area we cover every week, so there is no travel loading on the quote. The call-out and the first half hour are priced before we start.
Yes, Balwyn, Camberwell, Hawthorn East and Kew East as well as Canterbury, all covered from Boronia on the same terms.
That is Boroondara, postcode 3126. Nothing about the usual job requires a council application.
Usually. Either we add AC-coupled storage alongside your existing inverter, or we replace it with a hybrid. Which one is cheaper depends on the age and brand of what's already there.
Tell us about your solar, electricity use and backup priorities. We’ll assess capacity, siting and connection requirements, then provide a clear battery quote. Book an assessment or call our Boronia crew to discuss the system.
