Solar Battery Installation Bundaberg

Power Your Home Day and Night

At Pearson Electrical, Solar & Air-Conditioning, we specialise in solar battery installations across Bundaberg and the Wide Bay region. We supply and install trusted, CEC-approved brands like Sungrow, GoodWe, and SigEnergy, giving you dependable, high-performance energy storage backed by our lifetime workmanship guarantee.

When I design a solar or battery system for your home, I design it as if it were my own. I don’t just look at your current power bill - I look at how to future-proof your home against upcoming changes in tariffs, energy pricing, and Ergon network rules. My goal is to build a system that gives you complete peace of mind - today, and for many years to come.

FAQ’s Solar Batteries

1. Can I add a battery to my existing solar system?

Yes. If your current inverter is a hybrid inverter, we can connect a battery directly. If not, we can install an AC-coupled battery that integrates with your existing setup. During your free assessment, I’ll inspect your system and design the most efficient option.

2. How much battery storage do I need?

It depends on how much power you use at night and how much solar your system produces during the day.

- Smaller homes: 10–13 kWh battery

- Average families: 13–20 kWh battery

- Large homes or high-energy users: 20 kWh +

I’ll help size your system to fit your lifestyle, ensuring it meets your needs now and into the future.

3. Will my battery work during a power outage?

Yes - when installed with the correct hybrid inverter and backup wiring. All our systems, including Sungrow, GoodWe, and SigEnergy, can power selected circuits or your entire home during blackouts. You won’t even notice the grid’s gone down.

4. What brands of batteries do you install?

We install trusted, CEC-approved brands that have proven themselves in Australian conditions:

  • Sungrow – dependable, value-driven storage.

  • GoodWe Lynx Home & HV Series – robust, scalable high-voltage batteries.

  • SigEnergy Systems – cutting-edge hybrid batteries with sleek all-in-one designs.
    All backed by strong Australian warranties and support.

5. How long do solar batteries last?

All of the high-quality lithium batteries I install come with a minimum 10-year warranty.

That warranty guarantees that after 10 years, your battery will still retain at least 70% of its original capacity, meaning it will only lose about 30% of its usable storage over a decade.

In real-world terms, you can expect up to 20 years of reliable use from today’s premium lithium technology.

These advanced batteries are rated for over 8,000 full charge cycles at 100% depth of discharge, offering exceptional durability, long lifespan, and consistent performance.

That’s the highest warranty standard on the market, and it’s the only level of quality I install.

6. Are there any government rebates or incentives?

Yes - absolutely. It’s never been a cheaper time to install solar or a battery. The Queensland Government’s “Battery Booster Program” (Cheaper Home Batteries Rebate) provides generous financial support for eligible households installing approved battery systems.

On top of that, the federal solar rebate (STC incentive) still applies - but it reduces every January 1 until it eventually phases out.

That means the rebates and savings available right now will never be this high again. Don’t miss your opportunity - act now to secure the current incentives before they drop.

7. How much does a solar battery cost?

The price of a solar battery system depends on many factors - including your energy demand, how you use power at night, and the size of the system needed to meet your goals.

For a high-quality solar battery from a reputable brand, the minimum installed cost typically starts around $6,000. From there, pricing varies depending on your household’s power usage, backup requirements, and overall energy goals.

Every home is different - which is why I provide tailored designs and fixed, transparent quotes with no hidden extras.

8. Can I go completely off-grid?

Yes - but it takes careful planning. Going fully off-grid requires larger solar arrays, more storage, and sometimes a backup generator. Most people start with a hybrid setup (grid-connected with battery backup) to enjoy the best of both worlds.

9. Do solar batteries require maintenance?

No ongoing maintenance is needed. Modern lithium batteries are sealed and maintenance-free. We recommend an occasional health check to ensure firmware and monitoring software are current - which we can handle for you.

10. How do I get started?

Simply book a free on-site battery consultation. We’ll inspect your home, assess your power usage, and provide a tailored quote showing how a solar battery could reduce your power bills and protect you from outages.
