Battery without solar

Store cheaper electricity.
Use it when rates rise.

You do not need solar panels to benefit from home battery storage. With a compatible system and suitable tariff, charge from the grid during cheaper off-peak hours and use stored electricity during higher-rate periods.

Product and installation guide →

Your proposal confirms the exact equipment, compatibility, usable capacity, output and warranties. Backup and other optional features depend on the selected system and installation design.

Charge off peak

Schedule a compatible battery to charge when your time-of-use tariff is cheaper, often overnight. Tariff windows and conditions vary by supplier.

Use it at peak times

Stored electricity can supply your home when grid prices are higher. This price-shifting approach is often called tariff arbitrage.

Add solar later if you choose

A battery-only system can be designed with future solar in mind, subject to product compatibility, grid arrangements and your property.

Designed. Installed. Supported.

Battery storage.
No solar panels required.

Tariff arbitrage means buying electricity at a lower off-peak rate, storing it, then using that stored energy instead of importing at a higher peak rate. The saving is not simply the tariff difference: charging and conversion losses, usable capacity, battery life, standing charges, changing tariff terms and installation cost all matter.

Talk to our team
  • Battery-only installation with scheduled grid charging
  • Daily demand and off-peak charging window reviewed

Useful to know

Your questions,
answered.

Speak to Sunuser
Can a battery really work without solar?

Yes, if the battery and control system support grid charging. It can charge during a cheaper tariff window and discharge later to reduce higher-rate imports.

What is tariff arbitrage?

It is shifting when you buy electricity: charging a battery at a lower off-peak price and using that energy during a higher-price period. Battery losses mean each stored unit delivers slightly less energy than was imported, so the tariff gap must be large enough to contribute towards the wider costs.

Will I definitely save money?

Savings are not guaranteed. They depend on your usage pattern, the difference between off-peak and peak rates, battery efficiency and degradation, tariff rules, standing charges and the installed cost. We model your own figures before recommending a system.

Do I need a special electricity tariff?

Battery-only price shifting normally needs a suitable time-of-use tariff with a meaningful lower-rate charging window. Check the supplier’s current eligibility, rates and rules before switching.

Will the battery protect me in a power cut?

Only if backup is included in the design. It requires compatible equipment and suitable switching, earthing and circuit arrangements; it is not automatic with every battery.

Which battery brands do you offer?

We can discuss Tesla, GoodWe, Sigenergy systems according to the design and current availability. Your proposal confirms the exact model, usable storage, power and warranty.

We don’t sell you the biggest battery. We design the right battery.

A larger battery only helps if your home can use the extra storage. We weigh household consumption, peak demand, existing or future solar, EV charging, overnight charging windows and your tariff against installation cost.

We also discuss desired backup capability and future expansion, so the design fits how you expect to live.
