Anker SOLIX Rises to No. 2 as Australia Passes 500,000 Home Batteries

Australia’s home battery boom has reached another major milestone with more than 500,000 home batteries installed through the Federal Government’s Cheaper Home Batteries Program.

But there’s another figure in the latest data that caught our attention at Coffs Solar Energy: Anker SOLIX has climbed to become the number two battery brand under the program.

As an Anker SOLIX installer, it’s exciting for us to see the brand gaining such strong momentum with Australian homeowners.

Anker SOLIX Climbs to Number Two

According to figures reported by Renew Economy, Anker SOLIX has moved into the No. 2 position for battery installations under the Cheaper Home Batteries Program.

That’s a significant result in a market that has grown incredibly quickly.

Home batteries have moved from being a relatively niche addition to rooftop solar to becoming an increasingly common part of Australian home energy systems. With half a million systems now installed through the program, homeowners are clearly looking for ways to store more of their solar energy and take greater control of their electricity use.

And Anker SOLIX is rapidly becoming one of the brands Australians are choosing to do it.

Why Coffs Solar Energy Installs Anker SOLIX

At Coffs Solar Energy, we don’t believe in offering a battery sim  ply because it has a well-known name.

We look at the complete system: how it integrates with solar, its capacity and expandability, backup options, monitoring, installation requirements and, importantly, whether it represents a good solution for the homeowner.

That’s why Anker SOLIX is one of the battery solutions we install for customers across Coffs Harbour and the Mid North Coast.

The modular design also means the system can be configured around the needs of the household rather than treating every home the same.

Getting More From Your Solar

For homes with rooftop solar, adding a battery can fundamentally change how that solar energy is used.

Instead of exporting most excess generation during the middle of the day, a battery can store that energy for use later in the afternoon, evening and overnight.

Depending on the system and configuration, a home battery can help:

  • Increase the amount of solar energy you use yourself
  • Reduce electricity purchased from the grid
  • Store excess daytime solar for evening use
  • Provide greater control over household energy consumption
  • Provide backup capability during a grid outage when appropriately configured

The right battery capacity, however, is different for every home.

Your electricity consumption, solar production, evening usage, existing solar system and future energy needs should all be considered before deciding what to install.

500,000 Home Batteries Is Just the Beginning

The speed at which Australia has reached 500,000 installations shows how rapidly home energy storage is becoming mainstream.

For us, seeing Anker SOLIX reach the No. 2 position in such a fast-growing market is particularly encouraging.

It reinforces what we’re already seeing locally: homeowners want battery systems that allow them to make better use of their solar and have more control over where their electricity comes from.

If you’re considering an Anker SOLIX battery in Coffs Harbour or elsewhere on the Mid North Coast, talk to the team at Coffs Solar Energy.

We can look at your existing solar system, electricity consumption and energy goals and recommend a solar and battery setup that makes sense for your home.
