#Commercial battery storage rebates are changing in May 2026

Check Rebate Eligibility

The federal rebate steps down after April 2026. Systems installed before May secure 8.4 STCs per kWh. After May, rates drop to 6.8 STCs per kWh, costing you up to $15,900 more on a 100kWh system.

Unlock the Benefits of Commercial Battery Storage

Investing in a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) transforms your energy strategy, cutting costs, protecting operations, and opening revenue streams through energy arbitrage.

We design and install commercial battery storage from 50kWh to 250kWh+. Reduce demand charges that make up 40-60% of your electricity bill, store excess solar power for evening use, and secure backup energy tailored to your site's specific load profile.

Whether you are adding to existing solar or starting fresh, we size systems based on your interval data, not guesswork.

Overview

#Which Best Describes Your Situation?

Whether you're adding to existing solar or starting from scratch, we can design the right battery storage solution for your business.

Already Have Solar?

Already Have Solar?

Add Battery Storage

Retrofit an AC-coupled commercial battery storage system to your existing setup. Store excess daytime power instead of exporting it to the grid for 0–5¢/kWh—then discharge during peak periods when rates hit 40–59¢/kWh.

With Victoria's minimum feed-in tariff now at effectively 0¢/kWh and other states following, batteries are the only way to capture value from your solar generation.

Works with most existing solar inverters. No need to replace your current system.

Starting Fresh?

Starting Fresh?

Solar + Battery or Battery Only

Install a new DC-coupled commercial solar and battery system for maximum efficiency. Or choose standalone battery storage, charge from the grid during off-peak rates (8–23¢/kWh) and discharge during peak periods (40–59¢/kWh).

Either way, you avoid near-zero solar export rates and capture the full value of your energy. We size systems based on your actual load profile and goals.

Ideal for new builds, roof replacements, or sites without solar suitability.

#How Commercial Battery Storage Saves and Adds Value

Want the battery designed to match your solar generation and operating hours?

Reduce Demand Charges

By storing low-cost solar or off-peak grid power, our commercial battery storage systems flatten your load profile and reduce the demand charges that make up 40-60% of your electricity bill.

Maximise Solar Self-Consumption

Sending excess solar power back to the grid now earns 0–5¢/kWh. Our BESS solutions capture that energy for later use, replacing grid power at 22–32¢/kWh—or peak rates up to 59¢/kWh. Without storage, your solar generation loses value every time you export. Batteries ensure you use what you generate.

Long-Term Reliability & Safety

Our commercial battery installations are AS/NZS 5139 compliant, with a 15+ year design life and thermal protection for safe operation in Australian conditions.

Backup Power & UPS Capability

Power outages cost thousands per hour. A commercial battery provides seamless backup power and UPS capability for critical circuits, keeping you online when the grid fails.

#Commercial Battery Storage System Sizes & Pricing

Battery sizing depends on your operating hours, peak demand periods, and the size of your commercial solar panels or existing system.

Not sure what size you need? We’ll recommend a battery size based on your bill, site load profile, and energy goals.


System Size Ideal For Typical Annual Savings Payback Period Upfront Cost (After Rebate)
50–100 kW Small businesses, cafés, offices $10k–$25k 3–4 years $24k–$69k
250–500 kW Warehouses, retail, logistics $40k–$90k 2–3 years $169k–$422k
1 MW+ Manufacturing & enterprise $100k+ 1.5–2 years Custom quote

Figures based on average commercial tariffs in VIC/NSW/QLD with time-of-use rates and demand charges. Federal rebate capped at 50kWh usable capacity at pre-May 2026 rates. Financing available.

#Ready to Start Saving? Let’s Talk Battery Storage.

If you’d like pricing, a sizing recommendation, or a quick assessment of whether battery storage will stack up at your site, we can help.

As part of an initial assessment, we'll look at what's driving your energy bill, whether demand charges are influencing your costs, how much commercial solar you're using versus exporting, and what you want the battery to achieve—savings, resilience, or both.

#FAQs About Commercial Battery Storage

What is a BESS (Battery Energy Storage System)?

A BESS is a Battery Energy Storage System—an industrial-grade rechargeable battery setup that stores electrical energy for your business. 

Unlike residential Powerwalls, commercial BESS units range from 50kW to 250kW+ and use LiFePO4 (Lithium Iron Phosphate) chemistry for safety and longevity. 

They store excess commercial solar power or off-peak grid energy, then discharge it during high-rate periods or outages.


Is battery storage worth it for a business?

It can be—especially where demand charges are a big part of the bill, where solar export is high, or where resilience matters. The best indicator is your interval data, which we can review to confirm suitability.


What size battery does my business need?

It depends on what you want the battery to do. Savings-focused systems are sized around kW (power) and kWh (capacity); resilience-focused systems are sized around your critical loads. We'll recommend based on your usage profile and commercial solar generation.


What is the difference between kW and kWh?

kW (kilowatts) is power—how much equipment the battery can run at once. kWh (kilowatt-hours) is capacity—how long the battery lasts. We size commercial BESS based on both your peak load and desired runtime.


Can battery storage reduce my demand charges?

Yes. Batteries can supply power during short high-demand events and reduce the maximum demand recorded for billing, which may lower demand charges depending on your tariff.


Can a battery provide backup power during an outage?

It can support backup power for selected circuits when designed with UPS capability. We'll help you identify critical loads and confirm runtime expectations.


Does battery storage work if I already have solar?

Yes. AC-coupled battery retrofits work well with existing commercial solar systems. We confirm inverter compatibility and configure for maximum solar self-consumption.


Can I store energy without solar panels?

Yes. Standalone BESS can perform energy arbitrage—charging from the grid during off-peak time-of-use rates and discharging during high-cost periods.


Are there rebates for business batteries in Australia?

Incentives vary by state. For the latest on commercial battery storage rebates, including the Instant Asset Write-Off, refer to the Australian Government’s Cheaper Home Batteries Program — and we can talk you through what may apply to your business.


How long do commercial batteries last?

Most LiFePO4 commercial battery systems are designed for 15-20 years with 6,000+ cycles. Warranties typically specify performance retention—we'll explain expected life based on your proposed cycling.


Do you install commercial solar panels too?

Yes. We design and install commercial solar systems from 30kW to 1MW+, with or without battery storage. Many clients start with solar and add batteries later when feed-in tariffs drop or energy needs change.
