When a family on the Gold Coast reached out to us, their solar system had been running well for years but they were still drawing too much from the grid at night. With rising energy prices and a growing interest in energy independence, they wanted to take the next step: battery storage.

We began by assessing their existing solar setup to confirm compatibility. Not all systems are battery-ready, so our team checked the inverter type, system size, and wiring to determine the best path forward. In this case, a hybrid inverter upgrade opened the door to future scalability and seamless battery integration.

The battery was installed neatly alongside their existing solar gear, allowing stored energy from the day to be used at night cutting grid reliance and maximising their solar investment. The result is lower bills, backup power during outages, and greater control over how and when energy is used.

At Dillon Solar, we design systems that evolve with you. Whether you’re adding storage now or planning ahead, our goal is to deliver tailored energy solutions backed by honest advice, expert installation, and long-term support.
