Technical FAQs 4

Should you install a solar battery in your home?

When it comes to residential energy storage, solar battery installation isn't just about connecting wires and flipping a switch. The location of your battery can significantly influence safety, performance, and lifespan—especially for integrators and system developers seeking long-term value and compliance.

Can a battery energy storage system be installed outside?

Outdoor installation can include an outbuilding not intended for habitation, detached or separated by a main wall with a minimum fire performance of REI 120 to BS EN 13501. If a battery energy storage system (BESS) is installed on the external wall of a building, it should not compromise the fire performance of the external wall.

Should you install a battery in your home?

Indoor installations maximize space efficiency. You can choose compact battery models that fit into small areas, such as garages or basements. By utilizing often overlooked spaces, you free up valuable outdoor land for other uses. Further, placing batteries inside reduces the need for extensive outdoor cabling, streamlining your property layout.

Why should you install solar batteries indoors?
