And Why Sungrow?<\/h2>\n<p>Why a battery? I wanted lower electricity bills and backup. For many years, I had a generous 22 cent feed-in tariff from AGL. They recently let me know they were dropping it to 6 cents.<\/p>\n<p>When it comes to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/battery-storage\/\">home batteries<\/a>, lower feed-in-tariffs = higher battery savings. With a 46c usage and a 6c feed-in-tariff, my best-case savings would be $5 per day, or $1825 per year. That would pay back the $14,000 retrofit in about 8 years.<\/p>\n<p>In practice, I&#8217;ll save much less because that number is predicated on fully charging with solar every day and fully discharging every night. That won&#8217;t happen. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/systems\/6kw\/\">6.6 kW solar<\/a> won&#8217;t fully charge the battery every day of the year, and the AirBnB tenants won&#8217;t drain the battery every night.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_77069\" style=\"width: 561px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-77069\" class=\" wp-image-77069\" src=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/sungrow-battery-and-inverter.jpg\" alt=\"Sungrow battery and inverter\" width=\"551\" height=\"292\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/sungrow-battery-and-inverter.jpg 1890w, https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/sungrow-battery-and-inverter-300x159.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/sungrow-battery-and-inverter-1024x542.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/sungrow-battery-and-inverter-768x406.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/sungrow-battery-and-inverter-1536x813.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 551px) 100vw, 551px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-77069\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Sungrow battery and inverter that I installed<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Why a Sungrow?

I chose Sungrow because it offers a similar amount of storage for $2,000 to $3,000 less &#8211; and because I already have a Powerwall on my house and wanted to try something different. At SolarQuotes, we won&#8217;t accept free review hardware from manufacturers because my experience is corporate marketing departments <strong>always<\/strong> bitch and moan if your review is not a puff piece. So we buy the hardware we review. Cost of buying your own gear to review? Expensive. Independence from corporate marketing types? Priceless.<\/p>\n<p>Also note that if you buy a complete solar + Sungrow setup all at once (as opposed to retrofitting), you can get a 6.6kW system + Sungrow battery for around the same price as just a Tesla Powerwall.<\/p>\n<h2>Why Replace My Fronius Inverter?<\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_77054\" style=\"width: 577px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-77054\" class=\"wp-image-77054\" src=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/finn-with-inverter.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"567\" height=\"347\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/finn-with-inverter.jpg 690w, https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/finn-with-inverter-300x183.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 567px) 100vw, 567px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-77054\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sorry Fronius fans!<\/p><\/div>\n<p>To retrofit the Sungrow battery to my existing system, I decided to replace the six-year-old Fronius inverter with a Sungrow hybrid inverter.
