Rising electricity prices are hitting large households that hardest, especially homes with pools, high usage, and year-round cooling. 

One of our recent clients was facing an annual electricity bill of $8,400. After installing a high-capacity solar and battery system, their summer power costs dropped to just 48 cents per day. 

In February, their total electricity bill came to $14.97 for 31 days. 

For a large home with a pool, that’s a dramatic shift. 

The System Behind the Savings 

To achieve this level of performance, we installed: 

• 19kW of solar panels 

• SIG 15kW inverter 

• 48kW battery storage system 

This setup allows the home to generate significant daytime power while storing excess energy for evening and overnight use. Instead of exporting most of their solar back to the grid, the homeowner now uses their own stored power when electricity rates are highest. 

The result? Minimal grid reliance, even during high-demand summer months. 

Why Larger Systems Make Sense for High-Usage Homes 

For households with: 

• Swimming pools 

• Large air-conditioning systems 

• Multiple occupants 

• High daytime consumption 

A larger solar array combined with battery storage con dramatically reduce ongoing electricity costs. 

Rather than installing a “standard” system, this solution was designed specifically around the property’s usage profile and energy goals. 

Is “No More Bills” Realistic? 

While grid connection fees and minor charges may still apply, systems of this size can reduce energy usage from the grid to near zero during strong solar months. 

This homeowner’s February result shows what’s possible when solar generation and battery storage are properly sized. 

Thinking About Upgrading? 

If you’re currently paying thousands per year in electricity, a tailored solar and battery system could significantly reduce your long-term costs. 

Every property is different, which is why we assess your usage, roof space, and goals before recommending a system size.
