Home battery storage for UK homes
REST designs solar battery systems around your home, your tariff and when you actually use electricity — with Duracell and Fox ESS options for different household demands.
Battery systems, explained simply
REST specifies the final system after reviewing your property, existing solar equipment, phase type and electricity use. These routes help explain where each ecosystem is strongest.
REST recommendedDuracell Energy
Duracell Dura5 systems suit homeowners who want clean hardware, flexible expansion and straightforward app monitoring.
Flexible capacityFox ESS
Fox EP batteries step from compact residential storage through to larger capacities for heat pumps, EV charging and greater evening use.
Alternative ecosystemsAlternative battery ecosystems
Tesla Powerwall and Growatt ALP systems provide additional routes where integrated control, brand preference or larger modular capacity shapes the project.
Duracell home battery storage
The Dura5 range is designed to keep surplus solar available after the sun drops. REST can configure the system around typical evening use, future expansion and the compatible inverter setup.
Modular capacityStart with a suitable configuration and expand where the final system design allows.
Clear monitoringSee battery charge, household demand and energy flow through the Duracell platform.
Installed as one systemREST coordinates the battery, inverter, commissioning and handover around your property.
Fox ESS battery storage
The Fox EP range gives REST a clear step-up path from smaller homes to higher-demand properties using electric heating, EV charging or more electricity after sunset.
Final usable capacity and expansion depend on the compatible inverter, system configuration and manufacturer limits.
Real installation workmanship
A clean battery installation needs more than a product fixed to a wall. Equipment positioning, cable routes, inverter setup, commissioning and customer handover all affect how straightforward the system is to own.
Battery monitoring apps
Your chosen battery ecosystem includes its own monitoring platform. The interface differs by brand, but the purpose is the same: make solar generation, battery charge, home demand and grid use easier to follow.
View live energy movement and understand how the battery supports the home.
Review the Fox system from one mobile view and follow performance over time.
Track connected generation and storage equipment through the Growatt platform.
Monitoring depends on a reliable internet connection and the manufacturer cloud service. A disconnected app does not always mean the energy system has stopped operating.
A useful starting point
Select the closest household profile to see which part of the range REST would usually investigate first. This is a guide, not a final product recommendation.
Starting point
Balanced storage for a typical home that wants to use more daytime solar during the evening.
Ask REST to size my systemProtection and clarity
REST explains how the battery stores energy, when grid charging may be useful, what monitoring depends on and where the limits of a standard home battery system sit.
Independent consumer safeguards and a route to support if a qualifying issue cannot be resolved directly.
Performance estimates and proposal paperwork can be independently checked to reduce the risk of misleading claims.
Design, commissioning and certification are completed against recognised microgeneration standards.

Home battery questions
Yes. A compatible battery can charge from the grid during selected tariff periods and discharge later. The financial result depends on your tariff, usage pattern, system settings and battery losses.
Only when the system includes compatible backup hardware and has been designed for backup operation. Standard battery storage does not automatically mean the whole property will remain powered.
A battery stores electricity for use later. With solar, it can keep spare daytime generation for the evening. With a suitable tariff, it may also charge during cheaper periods and reduce purchases during more expensive periods.
The right size depends on electricity use, solar generation, evening demand, phase type, future plans and the compatible inverter. REST confirms the final recommendation after reviewing the property and usage profile.
Yes. Duracell, Fox ESS, Tesla and Growatt systems have their own monitoring platforms. Monitoring normally relies on the property internet connection and the manufacturer cloud service.
No. Any examples are illustrative. Actual savings depend on tariff prices, lifestyle, weather, solar generation, system losses, battery settings and the final system design.
