Battery Storage

With battery storage, you can capture and store excess energy generated during the day for use when you need it most, like during the night or on cloudy days. This helps you maximise energy savings, reduce your reliance on the grid, and make your energy use more efficient.

Libbi – The Smart Home Battery by MyEnergi

Here at Hesstec Electrical we are approved installers of Libbi, providing expert installation and support to help you unlock the full potential of your smart energy system.

Libbi is MyEnergi’s smart, modular home battery system, offering scalable energy storage from 5 to 20 kWh. Designed to intelligently determine when to charge,from solar or grid, and when to discharge, Libbi adapts to your energy usage patterns, solar generation, and tariff rates to maximise efficiency and cost savings.

Seamlessly integrated with MyEnergi’s eco-smart devices, including the zappi EV charger and eddi hot water controller, Libbi puts you in control via the MyEnergi app.

Why libbi is the right choice for your home

Modular by design, adaptable around your time-of-use tariff, easily integrated with microgeneration and fully customisable to suit your exact energy needs, libbi isn’t just the right choice, but the perfect choice for your home.

With the flexibility of both grid and 100% renewable charging capability, anti-drain functionality as standard, the choice of two inverter sizes, a wide range of capacity possibilities and optional blackout backup capability, libbi has been designed to set the standards in battery storage.

Rather than a standard product or a uniform approach, we’ve made it easy to specify the system that you really want to ensure optimum energy efficiency, minimal reliance on the grid and maximum savings.

How It Works

Stores solar energy during the day for use at night or during peak grid hours.
Charges from the grid when electricity is cheapest (like overnight on off-peak tariffs).
Discharges to power your home, EV, or appliances when demand is high or during a power cut.
Fully managed through the MyEnergi app, giving you complete visibility and control.

Frequently Asked Questions: Battery Storage

What is Battery Storage?

Battery storage is a system that stores excess electricity, often generated by solar panels, for use at a later time. It allows you to use your own renewable energy even when the sun isn’t shining, such as at night or during power outages.

How does a battery storage system work with solar panels?

During the day, your solar panels often produce more energy than your home or business uses. Instead of sending that excess power back to the grid, a battery stores it. Later, when your panels aren’t producing power, the battery supplies energy to your property.

What are the benefits of battery storage?

Battery storage helps you maximise your solar investment, reduce reliance on the grid, lower electricity bills, and provide backup power during outages. It also gives you greater control over when and how you use your energy.

Can I add battery storage to my existing solar system?

Yes! Most solar PV systems can be retrofitted with battery storage. Our team can assess your current setup and recommend a compatible battery solution.

How long does a battery last?

Battery life depends on the brand, usage, and capacity, but most modern home batteries last between 10 to 15 years and come with warranties of up to 10 years.

Is battery storage right for me?

If you want to reduce your electricity bills, gain energy independence, or have reliable backup power during outages, battery storage is an excellent option. We offer tailored solutions to match your energy usage and lifestyle.
