Solar Battery Installation in Donvale, Melbourne
SolarAide recently completed a 41.93kWh solar battery installation in Donvale, Victoria, upgrading an existing residential solar system with new battery storage.
The project was designed to help the home store more of its solar energy and make greater use of that energy when solar generation is lower, particularly during the evening.
Project Overview
Location: Donvale, Victoria 3111
Project type: Residential battery installation
Installation: New battery system
Battery capacity: 41.93kWh usable capacity
Connection: On-grid
Installation position: Indoor
Existing system: Connected to an existing solar panel system


Battery & Inverter System
SolarAide installed a Fox ESS EQ4800 battery system, configured as a nine-unit battery setup providing a total usable capacity of 41.93kWh.
The installation also included a Fox ESS H3-15.0-Smart hybrid inverter, providing 15kW AC power and integrating the new battery system with the property’s existing solar setup.
Both the selected battery system and inverter are VPP compatible, providing the homeowner with flexibility for future energy-management opportunities.
Designed Around Existing Solar
Rather than replacing the existing solar panel system, this project focused on adding substantial battery storage to an established residential solar installation.
The new battery system allows more of the home’s solar generation to be stored and used later, helping increase self-consumption and reduce reliance on grid electricity when solar production is unavailable.
A High-Capacity Home Battery Solution
With almost 42kWh of usable battery storage, this Donvale project is a significant residential energy-storage installation.
The system was designed for a multi-storey home and installed indoors, with the battery and inverter selected to integrate with the existing solar system while providing substantial energy-storage capacity.
