How to upsell customers to a battery storage system

Inventions like the Tesla Powerwall have become game-changers for the solar industry, with solar battery storage solutions now becoming available to a mainstream market.

The technology has evolved so that battery solutions like the Tesla Powerwall can power your home for seven days or more when they are fully charged, which means you can navigate long periods of rain and power outages without ever losing power.

Why do Australians need solar battery storage systems?

While battery storage systems have become affordable, it can still be challenging to inspire a customer to add the extra price to a solar installation. Here are the reasons why these systems are a good investment.

Security: When you have a solar battery, the lights are never going to turn off suddenly. If there is a power outage in your area, your battery – combined with your inverter – will seamlessly continue to provide power to your home or business. You will never lose power in the middle of important work; your security systems and lighting will always continue to operate, and the food in the fridge will keep.

Power through the night: For many homes, the heaviest energy use is at night when the sun is obviously no longer shining. Having a solution like this on hand means that you will always have electricity when you need it most without relying on the expensive grid.

It can help eliminate your bill: Many people will generate solar power during the day but not have enough to make it through the night without having to turn back to grid power. These solutions complete your system and allow you to store enough energy to ensure everything stays on without having to switch back to the power network.

Keeping up with the Jones: There are many consumers out there that need the latest gadgets and need to be the first in their circle of peers to have them. These systems have been designed to look stylish and futuristic, so they make a great conversation piece. Homes with all of the latest technologies will be very interested in hearing about these game-changing innovations.

They improve your carbon footprint: Solar batteries are an essential purchase for the environmentally conscious as they improve your carbon footprint far beyond what a regular solar system can. It allows you to be independent of the grid in many cases and solely powered by the sun, even when your neighbour’s power has been cut. For those looking to achieve a carbon footprint of net-zero, these are an essential tool.
