Battery series · Red Earth Energy Storage · 2 sizes, all CEC-active
2 sizes from 3.69 to 5.04 kWh usable, all in below the smaller-home band. This page is for picking the size.
Each size is its own CEC listing with its own page. Household bands are the owner’s guide; rebate fit is against the WA scheme’s cap.
WA rebate fit: No WA rebate under 5 kWh
Household band: Below the smaller-home band
Full specs , 3.69 kWhWA rebate fit: Under the cap
Household band: Below the smaller-home band
Full specs , 5.04 kWhThe WA Battery Scheme pays $130 per kWh on the first 10 kWh, capped at $1,300. Capacities under 5 kWh receive nothing, and every capacity from 10 kWh up receives the same $1,300. A larger battery does not earn a larger rebate. Whether a particular product qualifies also depends on it being Synergy-approved. “Over the cap” does not mean you should not buy it; the extra capacity is simply at full price. Figures come from each size’s own CEC listing; SBP holds no verified per-size pricing for this series.
The Red Earth Troppo is an Australian-designed battery system built for Australian climate and grid conditions. Designed and supported from Red Earth's Brisbane headquarters, the Troppo includes enhanced thermal management for temperatures up to 55°C and IP65 weatherproofing as standard.
As an AC-coupled system, the Troppo pairs with a separate battery inverter, including models from Victron, Selectronic, and SMA, and can sit alongside an existing solar inverter. In WA, adding a battery to an existing system counts as an alteration that brings whole-of-site compliance into play, and the Troppo is not currently on Synergy's Supported Solutions List, so it does not qualify for the state rebate or Battery Rewards. Two Troppo models are on the Clean Energy Council approved battery list: the TROPPO-4841 (3.69kWh usable) and the Troppo ULTRA-5156 (5.04kWh usable).
Red Earth is one of the few Australian-owned battery companies. Design, testing, and customer support are all handled locally, with direct access to Australian-based technicians through the company's Australian phone support.
For Perth installations, the enhanced thermal management and IP65 rating suit outdoor mounting in WA conditions. Homes keeping existing solar should compare it against a hybrid inverter replacement. The trade-offs are higher pricing per kWh compared with Chinese-manufactured alternatives, and a smaller installer network.
