Battery Storage in Basingstoke
Basingstoke is Hampshire's largest commuter town, with a population of 113,000 and extensive modern housing estates ideal for solar and battery storage. The town's predominantly 1960s-2000s housing stock features detached and semi-detached homes with excellent roof access and garage space for battery placement. Basingstoke is 28 miles from our Fareham base, but the strong demand and excellent housing stock make it a growing part of our service area.
Basingstoke's commuter population means the vast majority of households are empty during peak solar generation hours. Without battery storage, solar panels in Basingstoke export 65-75% of their generation at poor SEG rates. A battery flips this equation entirely, storing daytime solar for evening consumption when the family returns. This makes Basingstoke one of the locations where battery storage adds the most value relative to solar-only installations.
Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council is supportive of renewable energy installations. The town's modern estates around Brighton Hill, Hatch Warren, and Beggarwood offer straightforward installation conditions with good roof access and garage space for batteries.
