Realistically, how close are we to this?
Whats a battery worth these days?

well interesting part of the read is the cottage is a rental ! are you the renter or rentee ?
im under the understanding that they (western power/synergy) wont approve it unless your the owner or have their consent and wont enter in to a tariff setup with you unless as well your the owner
cant tell you much bout solar power batteries , but I believe the price is still up around the 10 to 15k mark for one
I have a 3Kw system
was installed with only half the panels when new back in (I think) 2011
so a few months ago I managed to pic up a system like mine that was being uninstalled to make way for a larger system and used the panels (as they were the same as mine) to finish my system
so if your interested I have a 3kw inverter here
