Typical home: Large prestige residences, riverside estates, modern luxury homes
Energy use: Very high — multiple zones of ducted air-con, pools, spas, EVs
Solar penetration: Established — most premium homes already have rooftop solar
Key consideration: Large floor plans + high consumption mean storage needs to be sized properly to clear the evening peak

Recommended battery size

Standard home: 16–20 kWh
Large home: 26–40 kWh
Retrofit option: Modular stacking allows scaling up storage as energy needs grow

Why a battery makes sense in Dalkeith

•Very high evening demand: Multiple AC zones + pool + spa + EV charging push usage past 40 kWh/day for many Dalkeith homes — sized storage covers more of the peak
•Discreet installation: Indoor installation (garage, plant room, internal laundry) keeps equipment out of sight on premium properties
•Existing solar uplift: Excess generation currently exported at 2–10c/kWh stores into the battery for ~32c/kWh A1 self-consumption
•EV charging integration: Smart charging from stored solar makes EV running costs essentially free for households with surplus generation
•Backup during outages: Critical-circuit backup keeps refrigeration, security, pool pumps, and home automation systems running through grid events
•Switchboard upgrades: Established homes may need an electrical upgrade for the battery — factor into installer quotes

Western metropolitan

Backup Battery: Optional

Western coastal suburbs have among the best grid reliability in Perth thanks to modern underground cabling. Backup battery value is primarily for self-consumption and DEBS peak export.
