Choosing a home battery: capacity, power and lifespan
The most important figure is the usable capacity in kWh: the energy you can actually take out. The nominal capacity is larger, because the battery management never lets the cells run completely empty or full. The depth of discharge (DoD) is the ratio between the two. So always compare usable with usable. The continuous charge and discharge power in kW determines how much of your consumption the battery can cover at any moment: a 10 kWh battery with 2.5 kW of discharge power cannot fully supply an induction hob and a washing machine together, even when it is still full.
Round-trip efficiency tells you how much of the stored electricity comes back out; the rest is lost as heat in the cells and the inverter. Check whether the manufacturer measures from AC to AC, including the inverter, or only the battery on the DC side: the latter comes out higher. Cell chemistry says something about lifespan and safety: lithium iron phosphate (LFP) usually reaches more cycles and is thermally more stable than NMC. The warranty is often stated in years and also in cycles or throughput in MWh; whichever is reached first applies. Also read what remaining capacity the manufacturer promises at the end of the warranty.
Size the capacity to your evening and night-time consumption and, if you have solar panels, to the surplus left over during the day; a much larger battery rarely fills up completely. An AC-coupled battery has its own inverter and is easy to add later; a DC-coupled battery works with a hybrid inverter and loses less when charging from solar panels. Backup power and off-grid are not the same thing: with backup power part of the home keeps running during an outage, while off-grid runs entirely without the grid. Plug-in batteries go into an ordinary wall socket and have limited power.
The data comes largely from the manufacturers’ technical datasheets. For part of the models we check capacities and power ratings against official lists: the approved batteries list of the Australian Clean Energy Regulator and the UK type test register of the Energy Networks Association (ENA); we only show models that are also sold in Europe. A caveat: manufacturers do not always measure capacity and efficiency under the same conditions, and whether a battery pays off depends heavily on your tariff and the rules in your country, not only on the specifications.
