About this service
A battery storage system stores electricity, either generated by your solar panels or bought cheaply from the grid during off-peak hours, and releases it when you need it most, cutting your reliance on grid electricity at peak-rate prices. Paired with a time-of-use tariff, batteries let you shift most of your consumption to your cheapest available rate, and paired with solar, they let you use far more of the electricity you generate rather than exporting it at a lower rate than you'd pay to buy it back.
Direct Power designs and installs battery systems sized to your household or business's actual usage pattern, whether you're adding storage to an existing solar array, building it in from the outset on a new installation, or installing a standalone system to take advantage of time-of-use tariffs. We work with leading battery and inverter brands and can include backup power functionality so your system keeps essential circuits running through a grid outage.
Every installation is carried out by qualified, MCS-accredited electricians and fully complies with G98/G99 grid connection requirements. You'll receive all the documentation you need for your DNO notification and any tariff registration your system requires.
