Home Battery Storage Now Makes Financial Sense // Even WITHOUT Solar Panels // Pay Back Calculations
Home Battery Storage Now Makes Financial Sense without solar panels, assuming you can get on an energy tariff with at least 4 hours Off Peak charging rates.
* Please note the calculations do not account for the electricity used by the house during the off peak period, along with the 10 - 20% losses in battery charge and discharging all of which will slightly increase the payback duration, but not by an amount to change the outcome. My focus was to keep it simple for the viewer to understand, and use the same format as in the 2019 video.
** Cost of items and installation are estimates. Costs of the batteries and install will depend on availability, complexity of install and the area you live in. It is important to get quotes and work out the payback based on your usage and total cost to install.
Consider switching to Octopus Energy if looking for a competitive energy provider, and specifically the Octopus Go Tariff mentioned in this video.
