Optimising Your Solar Power
Get Smart With Solar Batteries
Solar power is the future. And battery storage is the method for harnessing that future.
Solar batteries are a growing part of our energy system and are becoming increasingly accessible to the average homeowner. At 3D Energy, we’re your SE Queensland local electrical, solar, and battery storage company. We’re accredited by the Clean Energy Council for Solar and Storage. And we’re ready to help you install your solar battery on both residential and commercial fit-outs so you can get smart with your energy.
What are solar batteries?
Solar batteries store excess energy generated by solar panels during the day, allowing you to use it later, such as at night or on cloudy days. By storing this energy, you can maximise your solar power usage, reduce reliance on the grid, and lower your electricity bill.
Solar batteries typically use lithium-ion or other advanced technologies to store electricity through a chemical process. This stored energy is then available for use when needed, such as in the evening or during power outages.
In many cases, a solar battery can be retrofitted to an existing solar system. Our technicians can assess your current setup and recommend the best compatible battery options. To receive the benefits of solar batteries, its essential to have them installed properly by qualified professionals.
Benefits of Solar Batteries
Enhances energy independence
By storing excess energy generated during the day, solar batteries allow you to rely less on external power sources, giving you greater control over your energy use.
Reduces reliance on the grid
With a solar battery system, you can draw on stored energy instead of pulling from the electricity grid, especially during high-demand periods or at night, reducing your dependence on traditional electricity providers.
Lowers electricity bill
By tapping into the energy stored in your solar and battery systems, you can reduce the need to draw power from the grid, especially during peak hours when electricity rates are higher. This helps you save on energy bills.
Provides backup power during outages
A major advantage of solar batteries is their ability to provide backup power during outages. Solar battery systems ensure that essential circuits—like lighting and power—remain operational during grid failures. This is especially crucial for businesses with equipment or products that need continuous power to avoid disruptions during blackouts.
Sustainable solar and battery system
Solar power is a renewable, sustainable, and free source of energy. Batteries let you harness more of this clean energy in the future.

Residential Solar System with Battery Storage
This residential property had a pool, pool heater, ducted air conditioning, and many other appliances on-site, resulting in an energy bill pushing $5,000 annually. The proposed solution included a 13.3 kW solar system with two Sungrow Inverters and a 12.8kWh Sungrow battery.
This system will generate an average of 50 kWh of electricity per day, lowering the annual bill from nearly $5,000 to $1,266, a savings of 73%.
Getting Battery Ready
Even if you’re not ready to purchase a storage system, it’s important to ensure that your solar system is battery-ready from the start.
A hybrid inverter blends a solar inverter and a battery inverter into one device. So, you can add a battery at any time without the need for any additional (and expensive) equipment. While this might cost a bit more upfront, it will save you a tremendous amount in the long term. It’s also a more efficient DC-coupled system that will help you have less power loss over the short term.

Happy Customers
“We are so pleased to have worked with 3D Energy."
Matt's experience with solar and his wealth of knowledge enabled us to feel confident with his recommendation of what system to use. The crew turned up on time, on the day they were supposed to and completed the job as planned. At all times they were professional and courteous. A great company to deal with.
"Highly recommended!”
Matt and the Crew from 3D Energy were organised, highly efficient, and finished the job ahead of schedule. They had a heavy solar installation workload, as well as rectification electrical and new compliant smoke detector work, and it was all done in accordance with the quote. Matt made the whole process very easy, and has even identified an Energex issue and helped with the fault report.
"We would have no hesitation in recommending them...”
Matt explained everything we needed in detail, in a professional manner and answered all our questions. We never felt pushed or hurried to make a decision but when we did Matt (and Tom) were prompt, helpful and efficiently completed our solar installation. We would have no hesitation in recommending them for any electrical work, and already have done so to family / colleagues.
"I would thoroughly recommend Matt and 3D Energy for any electrical & solar work.”
3D Energy helped with a warranty issue with a faulty inverter installed by another company, I could not have asked for any better service. Warranty went through quickly and easily. We then had Matt move the inverter to a different location at our house. His work was exceptional as well as being very clean and tidy. Matt's communication with what he was going to do, when he was going to do it and cost was also excellent.
"Thank you to Matt and the team, we are very pleased with the work that was done. :D”
3D Energy have just installed a solar system on our property, and the outcome has been exceptional. The solar output has been better than originally expected and I will definitely be using them again for other electrical work needed on our home. They arrived at the specified time, were very thorough, professional and explained the process. I will be strongly recommending them to friends who also need electrical work done.
"I would not hesitate to recommend 3D Energy to anyone considering using them.”
“When I was making inquiries with work colleagues about installing Solar, I was informed about 3D Energy and the installations he had done previously. Matt had been given very high praise for his professionalism and work ethic. I contacted Matt and received a quote and very good explanation on the system, the pricing was competitive and all products used of the highest quality. The installation went well and the finished product not only functions well but looks good, it was evident that Matt had a lot of pride in the work he completes. Thanks Matt and Callum.”
