Battery + EV Charger Install

48kWh Battery in Chapel Hill, Brisbane

Kevin added 48kWh battery storage, a 20kW inverter, and an EV charger to their home, storing excess solar for evening use and cutting their power bills.

The Story

This Chapel Hill home now runs on 48kWh battery storage, a 20kW inverter, and an EV charger featuring Enphase equipment. Connect Energy designed and installed the complete system, handling everything from the initial consultation through to commissioning and handover.

With 48kWh 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, Kevin 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.

“Fantastic install from Connect Energy yesterday in Brisbane. 48kwh and 20kw inverter with an original Enphase system.

Brett wrangled through supply issues and was very detailed with the install. The hot water timer was originally running on the solar system board. He diligently rewired it so the energy meter displays accurately. He also made sure the hot water system isn’t running on the same phase as the car charger.

Would def recommend Brett Fisher and his team at Connect Energy”

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose a solar installer in Chapel Hill?
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 Chapel Hill 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?
Connect Energy installs premium equipment including Sigenergy, Enphase, and LONGi products. They select the best equipment for each home's specific needs rather than pushing a single brand.
