This is essentially what I would look at.

That is the Renault Zoe battery with a hybrid inverter, add another £2k for a building, and Electrician work and you have a decent amount of storage for a "cheap" price.

The other option I would look at, as I say is a BMW I3 battery or I believe some people are getting Tesla Batteries to work as well.


Then there is the "best" option really for me which would be a Fogstar system, at just under £10K and that is for effectively 60Kw usable capacity with a 20kw three phase inverter, or knock a grand off and get the 14kw hybrid inverter.


Things will change though once BYD start licensing their Blade Batteries to companies to make home batteries with them.
