Solar inverters we partner with

A Solar Inverter is regarded as the brains of any solar system, it takes the direct current from your solar panels and turns it into an alternating current that your home can use as power. When selecting a Inverter there are a few key factors to consider. These include, efficiency, warranty and after sales support.

At Cerium Energy we partner with only the best brands to provide you the best solution for your home or business. All our inverters come with a industry leading 10 Year Product Warranty!

Battery storage brands we partner with

Aside from utilising the solar power in the home or business, the third stage of the energy production process is to store any additional power in a local storage solution.

Our product offering only includes the highest performing and most reliable batteries in the world. We can source multiple battery brands but our most popular and most versatile battery solutions include Tesla and Sungrow.

Solar monitoring

Often an after-thought, a solar monitoring product can determine the success and level of return you can achieve with your solar power system.

Allowing you access to live data on your systems power generation and consumption in all areas of the dwelling-it can help you make small changes and produce a huge financial impact when your next bill rolls around
