Solar and battery guidance for Craigie homes in Northern Suburbs. Sized battery options for 18-24 kWh daily usage.
Quick answer
A typical Craigie home uses 18-24 kWh a day and suits 6.6-8 kW of solar with a 10-13.5 kWh battery. At current Synergy rates that setup saves about $2,300 a year, and the WA Battery Scheme covers up to $1,300 of the battery.
