LMS Electrical installs home and business batteries across South East Queensland, either with a new solar system or added to the one you already have. A battery stores the solar you don't use during the day so you can run the house at night, keep the lights on in a blackout and, if you choose, join a virtual power plant.
Solar panels only work when the sun is shining. A battery stores the extra energy they make during sunny periods, when the panels generate more than your home needs, instead of sending it all back to the grid.
Later, when the sun isn't shining, the battery releases that stored energy to power your home, so you have solar power at night and on cloudy days, and a backup source when the grid goes down.

Can I add a battery to my existing solar?
Usually, yes. Some rewiring or minor upgrades may be needed for compatibility and performance, such as a hybrid inverter or a battery with its own inverter. LMS specialises in adding batteries to existing systems for Brisbane and Gold Coast homes, and will tell you plainly if your system is better upgraded.
Ask us about the current federal and Queensland battery rebates: we check what applies to your home when we quote.

Google review, June 2026
★★★★★Five stars.
LMS Elec installed my solar and battery system 6 months ago. The system has been awesome massively reducing power bills. The entire team were great to deal with pre, during and post install. My power failed a few weeks ago, one of the team went out of their way to come and inspect it for me. Turned out to be a grid fault, despite it not being their concern, they helped me diagnose and escalate the resolution.

FAQ
Questions people ask
Not covered here? Call 1300 456 776 and talk to the team.
What is solar electric battery storage, and how does it work?
Solar battery storage systems store excess energy generated by solar panels during the day. This stored energy can be used at night or during peak electricity demand, reducing reliance on the grid and increasing energy independence.
What are the benefits of solar storage batteries?
Battery storage provides homes and businesses with increased energy independence, reduced reliance on the grid during peak hours, backup power during outages, the ability to optimise solar energy self-consumption, and the ability to join a virtual power plant (VPP).
What is a virtual power plant (VPP)?
A VPP refers to a network of homes or businesses with rooftop solar and battery storage that are connected using smart AI-based software. VPPs allow customers who are a part of the program to share and maximise the use of solar energy, potentially supercharging your energy savings.
How long do battery storage systems typically last?
Battery storage systems have varying lifespans depending on factors like battery chemistry and usage patterns. However, the high-quality battery storage systems that LMS Electrical install have a minimum 10-year warranty, ensuring long-term benefits and returns on investment.
Are there rebates for home batteries?
Ask us about the current federal and Queensland battery rebates. Eligibility and amounts change, so LMS checks what applies to your home and shows it on your quote.
Where do you offer your battery storage solutions?
We offer solar battery storage solutions across South East Queensland, including Brisbane, Logan, Ipswich, Gold Coast, Moreton Bay, Redlands, Sunshine Coast, and beyond.
