Storage. Smarter control. Better-informed decisions.

WHY WE EXIST

The equipment is only part of the picture.

A battery’s usefulness depends on more than its capacity. When it charges, how it is controlled, which tariff it uses and whether it can join a flexibility service can all change the value it delivers.

Those answers are often spread across manufacturer websites, supplier terms and platform documentation. Battery Boost brings them into one place, explains the differences and links back to the sources so you can investigate the next step.

Whether you already own a home battery, are planning an installation or manage a commercial site, our aim is to make the options easier to understand.

WHAT YOU WILL FIND

From your system to the wider market.

Make more of home storage

Explore optimisation, energy trading and virtual power plants: services that coordinate connected batteries to help the grid and may reward their owners.

Home trading & optimisation

Start with compatibility

Check which services may work with your battery. A brand name is only the starting point; the model, firmware, tariff and installation can all matter.

Check My Battery

Understand commercial opportunities

Learn how businesses can use storage for site energy management and access flexibility markets, with the right technical and commercial assessment.

Commercial & industrial

Connect batteries, tariffs and EVs

Compare battery and EV tariff options, and follow vehicle-to-home and vehicle-to-grid developments alongside the services available in Britain.

Battery & solar tariffs

Put the market in context

Explore recorded installations, reported costs and live grid conditions. Each dataset has a scope and date, so a partial view is not mistaken for the whole market.

UK Battery Market

Follow emerging technology

Track plug-in batteries and newer energy products, with a clear distinction between overseas availability, announcements and a suitable UK installation route.

OUR EDITORIAL APPROACH

Clarity starts with the evidence.

Energy products and services change quickly. We prefer official manufacturer, supplier and platform sources, record review dates and make the limits of the information visible.

How we verify our data
  1. 01

    Availability has a status

    A live service, trial and product announcement are different things. We keep those distinctions visible.

  2. 02

    Unknown means unconfirmed

    Missing evidence is not proof that a system is incompatible. Check the exact model and provider requirements.

  3. 03

    Dates and scope matter

    Live feeds, published statistics and manually maintained records are labelled separately. Recorded installations are not the entire UK battery market.

COMMERCIAL TRANSPARENCY

Understand the relationship behind a link.

Some outbound links may generate commission or a referral benefit. Commercial relationships do not determine compatibility results, availability labels or editorial conclusions. Inclusion of a company does not imply a partnership or endorsement.
