Household Battery Systems
This metric measures the number of household battery systems in Australia as estimated by SunWiz. Because this only includes batteries installed at the same time as solar systems, the total number of batteries is likely larger.
Where are we at?
More than 300,000 households have a battery. Governments are also investing in bigger community batteries, which share power between people in a local area.
Why does this matter?
Batteries help to shore up household renewable energy supply day and night, allowing homes to store surplus energy they’ve generated and use it when they need it.
How do we build more momentum?
If we install two million household batteries and nearly 5,000 community batteries, many more families can save money as we work towards powering Australia with 94% renewable energy.
