Solar battery installation in Mullumbimby
Nobody needs to explain grid outages to Mullumbimby. When storm season takes the lines down, the homes with batteries keep the fridge cold and the lights on — and our office is on Towers Street, so we're the ones installing them. Sized by a licensed electrician from your own town.

Batteries for a town that knows what blackouts cost
Mullum has learned the hard way what happens when weather meets the grid, lines through hinterland trees, storm cells off the coast, and outages that can run from an inconvenient evening to a genuinely rough few days. A properly set up battery changes what that looks like at your place: fridge cold, lights on, phones charged, internet up while Essential Energy works through the queue.
Day to day, the same battery does the quiet work of banking your solar instead of exporting it for cents and buying peak power back at dinner time. The sizing question in Mullum is often the housing stock, older timber homes with original switchboards that need checking before a battery connects, and hinterland shade that shapes how much solar there is to store in winter. Both change the design; neither shows up in a phone quote.
Our head office is on Towers Street. We size these systems for the same storms we sit through ourselves, and if anything ever needs a look, we're minutes away, not interstate.

What Northern Rivers Locals Say
"We had a 10kW system paired with a Tesla Powerwall installed, and the power bill savings were immediate. The setup looks sleek on the roof, and the battery gives us total peace of mind. Couldn't be happier with the equipment and installation!"
Mark T
"Coxy's service was amazing throughout the entire process. He was super professional, took the time to explain everything clearly, and actually felt trustworthy unlike some of the other solar companies I had been quoted by who felt like they just wanted a quick sale."
Sarah M.
"First call with Coxy was great, he was very knowledgable. Install process was smooth and fast. Couldn't recommend Coxy and the team more!"

How long will a battery run the house in a multi-day outage?
Depends on size and what you keep running, essentials like fridge, lights and internet can run through an evening comfortably, and if your solar's still producing by day, the battery recharges and goes again. For Mullum's longer storm outages, that solar-recharge loop is the difference between one night of backup and days of it. We'll map it for your usage at the assessment.
Our place is an older timber home, any issues adding a battery?
The switchboard is the thing to check, not the house. Plenty of Mullum's original boards need upgrading before a battery connects safely, and we'd rather find that at the free assessment and quote it upfront than surprise you mid-install.
Are you actually local?
