The Story
Rising electricity costs and unreliable grid supply prompted this Mansfield family to invest in a complete solar and battery solution. Their goal was simple: generate their own power and store enough to cover the hours when the sun isn’t shining.
Connect Energy specified a 13.3kW array paired with 32.2kWh of Sigenergy battery storage, optimised for the home’s consumption pattern.
The Solution
Connect Energy installed a complete solar and battery solution for this Mansfield home, selecting premium equipment suited to the site’s generation profile.
System Performance
The system generates 20,350 kWh per year, with the battery storing excess daytime generation for evening and overnight use. This covers 226% of the household’s annual energy consumption.
Financial Impact
This system significantly reduces the household’s electricity costs, with savings that grow as energy prices rise.
Government incentives applied to this project included Small-scale Technology Certificates (STCs) and the Queensland Cheaper Home Batteries Program, which together reduced the upfront cost by over $13,414.
