Is a Battery Storage right for you?

A home battery can store electricity for use when you need it.

Could a Home Battery Work for You?

A battery can charge when electricity is cheaper, then supply stored power to your home at more expensive times of day. If you have solar panels, it can also help you use more of the electricity they generate.

You do not need solar panels to consider battery storage. The right system and potential savings depend on your electricity use, tariff and property.

CDA Herts works with ESME Energy to help you explore whether its battery solution could be suitable for you.

See the Options and Run the Numbers

ESME has a dedicated page for CDA Herts visitors. You can explore the battery options, see its current information about tariffs and costs, and use its calculator to consider what the figures might mean for your home.

The calculator provides an estimate. Actual costs and savings depend on your circumstances, tariff and the system selected.

How It Works

ESME assesses your home and recommends a suitable battery capacity. Once installed, the system can charge at selected times and make stored electricity available when your home needs it.

Explore: Look at your electricity use, current tariff and whether battery storage could make sense for your household.
Choose: ESME recommends a system size and provides details of the installation and expected costs.
Use and monitor: ESME installs the system and provides an app so you can monitor how it is working.
