Is a home battery cost-effective?

A home battery isn't a small investment, but it is one that pays off. Here's why:

 

Save on your energy bill

Our goal is to make energy affordable for everyone and to manage it in a smart way.

Dynamic Energy Rate

Smart batteries can be programmed to store energy when electricity prices are low and use it when prices are high. This allows you to take advantage of cheaper electricity and lower your energy costs without having to do anything yourself.

Trading on the imbalance market

The imbalance market offers opportunities to earn money with your home battery. By making your battery available, you help keep the grid in balance. Grid operators pay a fee for this, which provides you with an additional source of income without requiring any action on your part.

Additional return

Up to 50%

How much will a home battery cost in 2026?

That depends on the brand, capacity, type, etc. On average, you should expect to pay between €6,000 and €10,000 (excluding VAT and including installation). 

Wondering how much a home battery would cost in your situation?

 

10,000 cycles

This corresponds to a service life of 25 years.

1C charging speed

This battery can be fully charged or discharged in 1 hour.

Why choose
smart control?

Always the most affordable energy prices

With smart control, your battery can respond to both the imbalance market and dynamic energy prices, allowing you to get the most out of your energy storage.

Avoid peak consumption and capacity charges

With the capacity rate, your grid fee is determined by your highest peak consumption. A smart battery can smooth out peaks by supplying additional power when your consumption is high.

Synchronize your battery with your smart devices

Do you have an electric car, a heat pump, or an air conditioner? A smart control system ensures that your battery supplies or stores energy at the right time.

Want to get even more out of your home battery?

With a home battery, you can do your part to help keep the power grid in balance. How? 

For example: on a sunny day with high production and low demand, you can store electricity and sell it later at a higher price. This allows you to take advantage of price fluctuations in the imbalance market. What do you need to do that?

Frequently Asked Questions

How much storage capacity does my home battery need?

That depends on your solar panel system and your electricity usage.

→ Is the battery too small? It has too little storage capacity relative to your solar panels.

→ Is the battery too big? That means part of the capacity would go unused, so you’d be making an unnecessarily large investment.

Our rule of thumb? 1 kWp of solar panels = 1.6 kWh of battery capacity.

The only way to be sure you're choosing the right storage capacity is to consult our experts. Get free advice from our battery experts!

Currently, the Flemish government does not offer subsidies for home batteries, but even without financial support, this is a profitable investment. 

Hardly! A home battery requires little to no maintenance. If you notice that your home battery is no longer working optimally, it’s best to call in a professional. The only thing you can do is wipe down the outside of your battery every now and then. That leaves you more time to enjoy your green energy 😉

A smart home battery—or a home battery with smart controls—is a standard model with a few extra features. For example, a smart battery will determine where your generated energy is best directed and when. Do you have a dynamic energy rate plan? Then your smart system can really shine. A home battery like this draws energy when prices are low.

Day-ahead prices are energy prices that are set one day in advance. Energy suppliers buy and sell the energy they need for specific hours of the following day. Do you have a dynamic contract? If so, you can take advantage of these fluctuating prices.

The lifespan of a home battery depends on the number of charge cycles. More charge cycles = longer lifespan. Our Alpha ESS comes with a warranty of 10,000 cycles and can therefore last an average of 25 years.
