20kW Solar + 24kWh Battery in Brisbane, Brisbane

Murray chose Connect Energy to install 20kW solar and 24kWh battery storage, taking control of their energy costs and reducing grid dependence.

The Story

This Brisbane home now runs on 20kW solar and 24kWh battery storage. Connect Energy designed and installed the complete system, handling everything from the initial consultation through to commissioning and handover.

With 24kWh of battery storage, the household captures excess daytime solar generation for use in the evening and overnight. That means lower bills year-round and protection against rising electricity prices.

From quote to commissioning, Murray experienced the level of service that has earned Connect Energy a 5.0 Google rating across dozens of reviews. Every installation is completed by Connect Energy’s own accredited team, not subcontractors.

“We engaged Connect Energy to install a 20kW solar system, coupled with 24kwh of expandable battery storage. Brett Fisher and his team did an amazing job from start to finish. Starting with a detailed yet clear and transparent proposal detailing the recommended options –
It made the decision to proceed easy – especially with an estimated 24%IRR on the investment, which is proving to be easily met thus far. All work was scheduled and we were kept informed of installation dates and times, and all timeframes were met. Follow up emails and phone calls to ensure everything was working well and to make sure we were completely satisfied – just good old fashioned service and common courtesy. I cannot recommend this company highly enough. A great experience all round. PS. I might be adding a further 8kwh battery to the existing expandable module – just so I can essentially be non-reliant on the grid. A great system.”

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose a solar installer in Brisbane?
Look for a company with CEC accreditation, a Master Electrician licence, and verified Google reviews. Connect Energy holds all three and maintains a 5.0 rating. They use their own installation team for every job in Brisbane and across Brisbane.

Is battery storage worth it in Brisbane?
Yes. Brisbane homes generate strong solar output during the day. A battery stores that excess energy for evening and overnight use, when grid electricity is most expensive. Many Connect Energy customers report significantly lower bills within the first billing cycle.

What brands does Connect Energy install?
