Workers that installed unit were polite and courteous. Was not happy having to pay extra for bolard and switch in power box even after sending photos of switch box and location before

Overall a great experience and they were very competitive in their prices when comparing them to other suppliers. Clint.C
Excellent service and solar battery…
Excellent service and solar battery product, from initial contact through to 3 months later. I really appreciated that they didn't try to sell me a new solar panel system as I just wanted a solar battery to compliment our already operational solar panel system. We have already saved so much and the app that comes with the AlphaEss battery is super easy to use - it gets a bit addictive to be honest! We went with Amber Electricity so we could control what prices we were paying for electricity and when we could sell energy too. Feels great to have that kind of transparency over your energy usage and bills!

The service and the staff are friendly and efficient
The people I talked to over the phone were friendly and patient. The installation team were kind and efficient.
Fantastic Service and Price with 'Solar Battery Group'.
I was pleased to deal with Solar Battery Group. I am pleased with the communications, and any time I had questions they were very helpful. They even made all the paperwork easy and simple. The finished product looks very tidy and the fitters were an extremely professional group. I highly recommend Solar Battery Group. Regards, Ken J (#307420)
Some communication issues
Good followup phone calls that were helpful.
I had communication issues around installation - wrong date was given and I received no response to my phone calls and emails to change the date. I didn't get a handover post installation because it was installed on a day that I wasn't at home.

Just one phone call all it took to get my battery in few days. Who ever I encountered with this company, they were very kind and very informative to answer my questions. I recommend solar battery group to all.
Starting with open honest sales people
Starting with open honest sales people, who took our current electricity usage into account before “selling“ the system they might want, our setup was customised for our family usage.
Payment terms was readily facilitated to suit and installation was organised. (#315504)
The installer was excellent and had done great hints also!
Save power
Dealing with Solar Battery Group was a great experience; all my questions were answered. The straightforward staff were great and informative. The instalations guys were awesome and did a great job.
Solar Battery Group is a non pressure…
Solar Battery Group is a non pressure company. From the flyer to post installation I couldn’t be happier with service and customer service provided. Thoroughly recommend SBG to help with all your solar needs. Order number 316452
Very bad customer service
Very bad customer service - home battery was "installed" almost 2 months ago . It still is non operational (nor is my previously functional PV system) - so i have lost 2 months of PV generated electricity. Customer service complaints/requests are ignored Regret ever getting involved with these dishonest incompetents
Not this business
I was initially overcharged then refunded all good. A fault then occurred in the solar battery and was not charging four months post installation. Post sales support team almost impossible to get hold of; emailed instructions re how to reset, instructions too complicated for me to follow. Many emails later including to the CEO requesting an on site visit to reset the battery which were ignored .
Had put a deposit on more solar panels and have not heard anything re installation five weeks on. Communicating with this group is like falling into a void. They are fast to communicate when wanting payment.
I regret going with this company , DO NOT make the same mistake
The pre purchase experience was good…
The pre purchase experience was good with patience in addressing our many questions. Installation was neatand tidy. Our only minor issue is that the installer could not stay run us through the operation of the plant. We were to be followed up with a phone call fro mthe company but we rang back ourselves where this was explained. Follow up to see if our plant is working appropriately has been good.
I am very pleased I chose the Solar…
I am very pleased I chose the Solar Battery Group to deal with. They have proven to be so professional. They kept me advised of the progress of my order, the installation went so smoothly and their continuing support has been very helpful. An excellent company!
Great price and great installation.
Smooth process from start to finish
Smooth process from start to finish. Installation team friendly and courteous as well as cleaned up after themselves. Battery has been fantastic and saved me a lot, particularly as can charge it during low rate period.
Exceptional upgrade - Total game changer

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exceptional Upgrade – Total Game Changer!
I recently had Solar Battery Group install a 26kWh battery to complement my existing solar setup, and the results have been phenomenal.
Before the battery, I was exporting so much power back to the grid for pennies. Now, I'm actually keeping and using the energy my panels produce. During the summer months, my self-sufficiency jumped to almost 90%.
What stood out to me:
Sizing Expertise: They listened to my needs and recommended the 26kWh capacity, which turned out to be the absolute sweet spot for my household's energy consumption.
Flawless Integration: Retrofitting a massive battery onto an existing system can sometimes be tricky, but their installation team handled it seamlessly.
The Savings: Watching my reliance on the grid drop to nearly zero during peak sun months has been incredibly satisfying (and amazing for my wallet).
If you already have solar and are on the fence about adding storage, I can't recommend Solar Battery Group enough. Professional, efficient, and they deliver exactly what they promise.
Bigger battery bigger savings
The product was good and service good this year. There was a period in 2025 when it was difficult to get response to my enquiries. Hence not 5 out 5. No complaints about communications this year. Also investment in larger battery is paying off.
