Grid Connect Battery: Store Solar, Save Money, Stay Powered in Tasmania
Tasmania’s variable grid, frequent outages, and high solar output make a grid-connect battery the perfect partner for your solar system. Store daytime energy for night use, earn peak-rate credits, and stay powered when the grid fails — all while claiming up to $7,500 federal rebate.
Why Grid-Connected Batteries for Tasmania?
Tasmania’s wild and frequent weather-related outages make grid-connected batteries a no-brainer. Unlike off-grid systems, you stay connected for reliability while storing excess solar to use when rates are high (up to 32 c/kWh).
Our batteries are built for Tassie’s cool, damp conditions and integrate seamlessly with your existing solar setup. Oversizing solar systems for Tasmania’s lower sun yields and all-electric households (the majority) is crucial.

Our Tailored Grid-Connected Battery Design Process
At Fluent Electrical, every battery system is custom-designed using our advanced SolarPlus modelling program. All that we request is your yearly electricity bills and any future ideas for the household. We then organise a time that suits you – either face-to-face or via Zoom. During that consult, we explain the WHAT, WHY, and HOW of your design.
- Personalized Assessment: We analyze your solar output, nightly usage, and roof orientation.
- Future-Ready Design: Sized for today and tomorrow — ready for EV charging or heat pump expansion.
- Precision Modeling: SolarPlus uses your actual usage data (manual or retailer import with consent) for pinpoint accuracy.
- Expert Consultations: In-person or Zoom reviews to walk you through savings and system layout.
- Quality Components: All components are sourced via distributors based in Hobart.
- Our installers are certified with SAA accreditation for grid-connect, grid-connect storage, and off-grid systems.
