Guide to the Cost of Energy Storage: 2025 Insights
Understanding the cost of energy storage in 2025 is essential whether you are a homeowner, business owner, or policymaker. With costs fluctuating based on system size, location, and
The full cost of getting a home solar system installed depends on: whether you include a battery for storing electricity. Systems of 3–5 kilowatts can work well financially for typical New Zealand households, and cost around $8,500 to $11,500 (incl. overheads and GST).
The lowest price paid was $8,000 for a 6 kWh battery, which implies that smaller systems can be more accessible for those on a budget. The best value was $9,000 for a 9.6 kWh battery, equating to $937.50 per kWh. Indicating the batteries below $1000/kWh can be hunted down in the NZ market. What's Next for Solar Prices in 2025?
The average cost to install a 5kW system in New Zealand is now around $11,000–$13,000, compared to $15,000+ just a few years ago. With systems lasting 25+ years and minimal maintenance required, the upfront investment quickly pays for itself. Rising energy prices + falling solar costs = faster return on investment for NZ households and businesses.
Solar can save the average New Zealand home $1,000 or more on their power bill each year, no matter where they live (EECA analysis). Here's how.
