Power bills have become a growing source of stress for Aussie families and businesses. Many families are forced to make impossible choices: three in 10 parents are struggling to afford basics like food, electricity and insurance. Government rebates provided some relief, but this was only a band-aid solution.
Nah, the 50kWh is borderline the smallest any family of 2+ should go. My household uses about 15-20kWh minimum between sun down and sun up, and we do all our washing etc during the day. We’ve got a 42kWh battery and it’s not even close to being enough for 2 days with no solar generation. Unless the battery is over 50% by sun down I’m not confident in it lasting until solar kicks in the next day without being careful with our usage.
10kWh can be less than an hour of ducted AC. It can be cooking dinner on the stove/oven for an hour with the tv and fans on. 10kWh isn’t close to enough for a family, and it would be hard to make it financially worth it. Would take 10 years to pay itself off, then it’s out of warranty with diminished capacity before it starts to provide any return on investment.
