Turn your daytime solar into round‑the‑clock power. Sunbliss Solar designs and installs battery energy storage systems (BESS) for homes and businesses across Narrabeen and the Northern Beaches. Our solar battery packages pair quality hardware with expert installation so you store excess solar, protect against blackouts, and manage time‑of‑use tariffs with ease.

What a BESS does for your Narrabeen property

A battery energy storage system captures surplus solar from your panels and makes it available whenever you need it. Connected to the grid and your inverter, it can power your home in the evening, charge during off‑peak periods, and provide backup during outages. With smart controls and an app, you’ll see where every kilowatt‑hour goes and optimise for savings or resilience.

Why choose Sunbliss Solar

• Local team serving Narrabeen 2101 and nearby suburbs including North Narrabeen, Warriewood, Elanora Heights, Collaroy, Mona Vale, and Wheeler Heights

• Licensed electricians and experienced solar battery installers

• Tailored designs that consider roof orientation, shading from coastal trees, and the salt‑mist environment

• Clean, safe installs to Australian Standards, including AS/NZS 5139 (battery safety) and AS/NZS 4777.2 (grid‑connected inverters)

• Transparent quotes, tidy workmanship, and ongoing support after commissioning

Benefits you’ll notice

• Maximise self‑consumption: use more of the solar you generate instead of exporting it

• Bill control: shift usage away from peak tariffs and charge off‑peak if beneficial

• Backup power: keep essential circuits running during grid outages

• EV‑ready: charge your car with solar‑stored energy

• App monitoring: track production, storage, and usage in real time

• VPP‑ready options: participate in virtual power plants if you choose

• Quiet, compact systems designed for coastal conditions with appropriate weatherproof enclosures

Battery packages and brands

We supply and install leading battery solutions with flexible capacities for different needs. Popular options include wall‑mounted and floor‑standing systems from trusted manufacturers such as Tesla (Powerwall), BYD, Sungrow, SolarEdge, AlphaESS, and GoodWe. We’ll match the battery to your goals, budget, available space, and existing or new solar system.

Typical sizing guidance

• Apartments and small homes: 5–10 kWh for night‑time usage and basic backup

• Family homes: 10–16 kWh to cover evenings, appliances, and longer outages

• Larger homes and small businesses: 16–30+ kWh with higher power output for multiple circuits or whole‑home backup
  Final size and configuration depend on your usage profile, inverter type, single‑phase or three‑phase supply, and whether you want essential‑load backup or whole‑home backup.

AC‑coupled vs DC‑coupled

• AC‑coupled: simple retrofits to most existing solar systems, independent inverter for the battery

• DC‑coupled: efficient new builds with hybrid inverters, fewer conversion steps
  We’ll recommend the best architecture after assessing your current system and future plans (for example, adding an EV charger or expanding solar).

Backup options

• Essential‑circuits backup: keeps lights, fridge, internet, and key power points running

• Whole‑home backup: higher‑capacity battery and inverter power; subject to switchboard design and supply limits
  We design backup circuits to avoid overloading the battery during an outage and to maximise runtime.

Our process

• Discovery call and bill analysis to understand your usage and goals

• On‑site assessment, including switchboard and meter location

• System design with proposed battery size, inverter compatibility, and backup plan

• Clear, itemised quote with performance expectations

• Approvals and scheduling

• Installation, testing, commissioning, and app setup

• Monitoring support and aftercare

Coastal‑smart installation

Narrabeen’s coastal conditions demand careful component selection and placement. We use corrosion‑resistant fixings, appropriate IP‑rated enclosures, and follow manufacturer clearances and ventilation guidelines. Where space is tight, we’ll advise on compliant indoor or outdoor locations that meet safety zones and access requirements.

Solar + battery for businesses

For cafés, retailers, offices, and light industrial sites on the Northern Beaches, a BESS can smooth daytime peaks, reduce demand charges, and provide resilience. We can integrate with your existing solar or deliver a turnkey solar‑plus‑storage package with monitoring to track savings across weekdays and weekends.

FAQs

Can I add a battery to my existing solar system?
Yes. Most properties can add an AC‑coupled battery with minimal changes. We’ll check inverter compatibility, switchboard capacity, and space for safe installation.

What size battery do I need?
We size the battery from your 12‑month usage patterns and solar output. A good starting point is enough capacity to cover your evening and early‑morning usage without routinely draining to zero.

Will a battery run my whole house in a blackout?
It can, but whole‑home backup needs sufficient battery capacity and inverter power. Many customers choose an essential‑circuits backup to prioritise critical loads and extend runtime.

How much maintenance is required?
Modern lithium‑ion batteries are low‑maintenance. Keep the area ventilated and accessible, and use the app to monitor performance. We provide guidance during handover.

Is a three‑phase supply a problem?
No. We offer single‑phase and three‑phase solutions. For three‑phase homes, we’ll design the system to balance phases and meet backup objectives.

What about safety?
We install to Australian Standards and manufacturer requirements, including clearances, fire and egress guidelines, and appropriate mounting surfaces. Systems include integrated battery management and protections.

Can I join a Virtual Power Plant (VPP)?
Many of our systems are VPP‑ready. If you opt in with a retailer or program, your battery can support the grid during peak events in exchange for bill credits or payments.

Do I need to replace my inverter?
Not always. AC‑coupled batteries work alongside most existing inverters. For new systems or major upgrades, a hybrid inverter may be more efficient.
