Another DX Energy system is up and running — this time in Liskeard, Cornwall, where we installed a 10 kWh all-in-one home battery energy storage system on the outside of the property, complete with new isolation and metering. The homeowner is now cutting around 68% off their monthly electricity bill.
What we installed:
- A DX Energy 10 kWh all-in-one home battery energy storage system, wall-mounted outdoors on a poured concrete plinth
- A dedicated AC isolator and battery distribution board, so the system can be safely isolated from outside the property
- A new external meter cabinet and a fully clipped, contained cable run between every component
Designed for an Outdoor Install
Not every home has the space indoors for battery storage — and in Cornwall, anything mounted outside has to cope with wind and driving rain. The battery unit is rated for external mounting and sits on its own concrete base, clear of the gravel and standing water. Every cable run is clipped and contained end to end, and the isolator and battery DB are labelled to current UK standards so any electrician can safely work on the system.
Key Benefits for the Homeowner
Around 68% off the monthly bill: 10 kWh of storage covers the bulk of this household’s daily demand, and the saving works out at roughly 68% of the monthly electricity bill.
Cheap-rate charging: The battery fills overnight on an off-peak tariff and powers the home through the expensive daytime hours, so everyday consumption is bought at the low overnight rate rather than the day rate.
Backup when the grid drops: Stored capacity keeps essential circuits running through a power cut — which matters more in rural Cornwall than in most of the country.
Live visibility: The built-in display shows storage level and household draw at a glance, without needing to open an app.
Room to grow: With the isolation and metering already in place, adding an EV charger or solar later is a straightforward addition rather than a rebuild.
