For businesses across New South Wales, installing commercial solar is a major step towards reducing electricity costs. But without battery storage, much of the excess solar energy generated during the day is often exported to the grid instead of being used when your business needs it most.
The GoodWe BAT-C 100kWh commercial battery is designed to solve that problem.
Paired with the GoodWe ET 50kW Commercial Hybrid Inverter, it provides a reliable, scalable energy storage solution that helps businesses store excess solar power, reduce grid dependence, and better manage electricity usage throughout the day.
Whether you operate a warehouse, factory, office, retail store, farm, school, or hospitality venue, a GoodWe 100kWh Commercial Battery Storage in NSW can help you get more value from your solar investment.
Why NSW Businesses Are Investing in 100kWh Battery Storage
Many commercial properties generate plenty of solar energy during daylight hours, but their peak electricity usage often happens in the late afternoon, evening, or during periods of high demand.
A 100kWh battery bridges that gap.
How it works:
Solar Panels → GoodWe Battery → Your Business
Instead of exporting surplus solar energy for a relatively low feed-in tariff, your business stores that energy and uses it later when solar production drops or electricity prices increase.
Key benefits include:
- Increased solar self-consumption.
- Reduced reliance on expensive grid electricity.
- Better management of peak electricity demand.
- Lower operating energy costs.
- Improved energy resilience during outages (when configured for backup).
GoodWe 100kWh Commercial Battery Storage in NSW Overview
The GoodWe BAT-C Series is purpose-built for commercial and industrial energy storage applications—not simply an oversized residential battery.
System Highlights
| Feature | GoodWe BAT-C 100kWh |
|---|---|
| Nominal Capacity | 102.4kWh |
| Usable Capacity | Approximately 100kWh |
| Battery Chemistry | LiFePO₄ (Lithium Iron Phosphate) |
| Battery Voltage | High-voltage commercial system |
| Protection Rating | IP55-rated cabinet |
| Expansion Capability | Up to approximately 450kWh with multiple battery cabinets |
The BAT-C range includes battery capacities from approximately 60kWh to over 110kWh, making it suitable for businesses with different energy requirements.
Built for Commercial & Industrial Applications
The GoodWe BAT-C is ideal for businesses with significant daily electricity consumption and medium-to-large solar systems.
Suitable applications include:
- Warehouses and logistics centres.
- Manufacturing facilities.
- Commercial offices.
- Retail stores and shopping centres.
- Workshops and trade businesses.
- Farms and agricultural operations.
- Hotels, cafés, and hospitality venues.
- Schools, childcare centres, and community facilities.
If your business uses large amounts of electricity during business hours or into the evening, commercial battery storage can significantly improve how your solar system performs.
Safe, Reliable LiFePO₄ Battery Technology
Safety is critical in commercial battery installations.
The GoodWe BAT-C uses LiFePO₄ (Lithium Iron Phosphate) battery chemistry, known for its stability, long cycle life, and suitability for stationary energy storage systems.
Commercial safety features include:
- Pack-level humidity monitoring.
- Automatic dehumidification system.
- Aerosol fire suppression at both battery pack and cabinet levels.
- Intelligent thermal management.
- IP55 weather-resistant enclosure for suitable outdoor commercial installations.
These features are designed to support reliable operation in commercial environments.
Pair the BAT-C Battery with the GoodWe ET 50kW Hybrid Inverter
A popular commercial configuration combines the GoodWe 100kWh Commercial Battery Storage in NSW with the GoodWe ET 50kW three-phase hybrid inverter.
Why this combination works
| Component | Specification |
|---|---|
| Hybrid Inverter Output | 50kW AC (Three Phase) |
| Battery Storage | Approximately 100kWh usable |
| Battery Voltage Range | 200V–800V |
| Application | Commercial & Industrial Solar + Storage |
A 50kW inverter determines how much power can be delivered at one time, while the 100kWh battery determines how much energy can be stored and used later.
This balance suits many NSW commercial sites with substantial daytime solar production.
Reduce Electricity Costs with Peak Shaving & Load Management
Commercial battery storage offers more than just solar storage.
The GoodWe ET platform supports several energy management strategies that can help businesses reduce electricity costs.
Potential applications include:
- Solar self-consumption.
- Peak shaving during high-demand periods.
- Time-of-use energy shifting.
- Grid support where applicable.
- Backup power for selected loads (depending on system design).
Businesses on time-of-use tariffs or demand-based electricity pricing may benefit from using stored energy during expensive periods instead of importing electricity from the grid.
Scalable Battery Storage for Growing Businesses
Your energy needs today may not be the same in five years.
The GoodWe BAT-C platform supports expansion by connecting multiple battery cabinets together.
Expansion options
- Start with approximately 100kWh usable storage.
- Expand up to approximately 450kWh total capacity (depending on system design and GoodWe specifications).
- Suitable for growing businesses, additional solar capacity, EV charging, or future operational expansion.
This modular approach allows businesses to invest in battery storage progressively.
Is a 100kWh Battery the Right Size for Your Business?
The best battery size depends on your business—not just the biggest battery available.
A commercial battery assessment should consider:
- Annual electricity consumption.
- Interval or half-hourly energy usage data.
- Existing solar system size.
- Daytime versus evening energy demand.
- Electricity tariff structure.
- Demand charges (where applicable).
- Solar export limits.
- Switchboard capacity.
- Backup power requirements.
- Future business growth.
A business with high evening electricity usage and limited export value may see strong benefits from a 100kWh battery, while another business may achieve better returns with a smaller or larger system.
The goal is to size the battery around actual energy usage patterns.
