For homes
Use your own solar in the evening
Most homes use the most power when the sun’s going down. A battery stores the day’s spare and gives it back then, with 0% VAT on home batteries until 31 March 2027.

Battery Storage in Worcester for Homes and Businesses
Whether it’s a family home in St John’s or a workshop in Warndon, a battery does the same job: it keeps the solar power you don’t use straight away for when you need it. We size it to how and when you use electricity.

Batteries for Worcester homes and businesses
For businesses
Cover the early starts and late finishes
Shops, offices and workshops use a lot of power in daylight, but not all of it. A battery carries the spare into the hours when the sun is low.
Flat roofs
Flat-roofed units and extensions
Plenty of Worcester business units, garages and extensions have flat roofs. Panels on low frames work well there, and they can face east and west to spread generation across the working day.
That matters for a battery: a business that uses power steadily through the day needs less storage than one that’s busiest early and late. We size it to your pattern, not a rule of thumb.
| 4 kWp in Worcester | kWh a year |
|---|---|
| Pitched roof, 35°, facing south | ≈4,000 |
| Flat roof, 10° frames, facing south | ≈3,620 |
| Flat roof, 10° frames, facing east | ≈3,320 |
| Flat roof, 10° frames, facing west | ≈3,300 |

The grid
Connecting your battery in Worcester
Worcester’s network is run by National Grid Electricity Distribution. Here’s what decides the paperwork.
Most homes
Systems up to 16A per phase are notified after they’re installed.
Bigger systems
Above that, we apply first and wait for approval before connecting.
Three-phase premises
Many business units have a three-phase supply, which changes what can connect.
Export limits
Sometimes a bigger system can go ahead by limiting what it sends to the grid.

Worcester FAQs
Battery storage in Worcester: your questions
Business batteries, VAT, weekends, flat roofs and free advice: here’s what Worcester customers ask us.
Got premises to look at?Call 01452 471031 or book a free survey.
Do you install battery storage for Worcester businesses?
Yes. Shops, offices, workshops and small industrial units can use a battery to carry daytime solar into the early morning or evening, when they’re open but the sun is low.
Is there VAT on a battery for a business?
Yes. The 0% rate is for batteries installed in homes. Business installations are charged VAT at the standard rate, which VAT-registered businesses can usually reclaim. Check with your accountant.
Can a battery store weekend solar for Monday?
Only a little. Batteries are sized to move power within a day or so, not to hold a whole weekend’s output. If your premises are closed at weekends, most of that solar will still go to the grid, where it can earn through the Smart Export Guarantee. We size the battery around your working week.
Can solar panels on a flat roof charge a battery?
Yes. Many Worcester business units and extensions have flat roofs. Panels on low frames at 10° make about 3,620 kWh a year per 4 kWp facing south, a little less than a pitched roof, and can face east and west to spread generation across the day.
