Answer the questions below to start your quote
What Is the GivEnergy All in One?
The GivEnergy All in One is a smart battery system. It includes both a battery and a hybrid inverter in one unit. This means you don’t need to install two separate devices. That saves space and makes the setup easier.
As energy prices fluctuate and more households invest in solar, home battery storage is fast becoming a must have. One system gaining a lot of attention is the GivEnergy All in One. A smart, powerful solution designed to help homeowners make the most of their solar energy.
A solar battery lets you use more of the power your panels make. Instead of sending unused power back to the grid, you can store it. Then, you can use that stored power later like in the evening or during a power cut.
The GivEnergy All in One is a complete battery system. It’s made to be simple to install and easy to use. But is it right for your home? This blog will help you decide.
The Two Versions of the GivEnergy All in One
GivEnergy offers two models of the All in One battery, both with an integrated hybrid inverter and IP65 weatherproof rating (so they can be installed indoors or outdoors):

- 6.4kWh usable storage capacity
- Perfect for smaller households, or those looking to start with a more compact system that can be expanded later
- Lower upfront cost, but still capable of providing reliable backup power and energy savings
- Includes 12 year Warranty

Why Add a Battery to Your Solar System?
Solar panels are great. They can cut your electricity bills and lower your carbon footprint. But there’s a problem, solar power is only made during the day.
Most people use the most electricity in the evening. That’s when the sun is down. Without a battery, you rely on the grid during that time.
A battery changes that. It stores power made during the day. You can use that power in the evening or even during a power cut.
Here’s why a solar battery makes sense:
-
- Use more of your own solar power
-
- Save money by using less grid energy
-
- Avoid high evening electricity rates
-
- Keep your lights on during a power cut
-
- Charge your EV or run electric heating
-
- Become more energy independent
With a battery, your solar setup works harder for you. You keep more of what you generate and use it when you need it m
Is the GivEnergy All in One Right for You?
The GivEnergy All in One suits many types of homes. It works well if you already have solar panels. But it also fits new systems.
It may be a good choice if:
-
- You use a lot of power in the evenings
-
- You want to store solar power instead of exporting it
-
- You’re looking for a backup power supply
-
- You want a smart, space-saving system
It also works well if you’re on a tariff that pays you for exporting power. You can store energy when prices are low a
How Smart Is the GivEnergy System?
One of the best things about this system is how smart it is. You can control and monitor everything through an app. The app shows:
- How much power your panels make
- How much power you’re using
- How much you’re storing in the battery
- How much you’re importing from the grid
- How much you’re exporting
This helps you understand your energy use better. You can see what times of day use the most power. Then, you can adjust your habits to save even more.
You can also set smart charging rules. For example, you can tell the system to charge the battery when prices are low. This is great if you’re on a smart energy tariff.
What About the Cost?
Battery systems are not cheap, but prices have come down. The GivEnergy All in One is good value for its size and features.
You may also be able to get help with the cost. Some homes qualify for 0% VAT on battery systems when bought with solar. And if you switch to a smart tariff, you could save even more over time.
You’ll need to speak to an installer to get a full quote. The cost will depend on your system size, home layout, and what extras you need.
Long-Term Benefits
A battery is a long-term investment. It won’t just cut bills now—it will help protect you from rising prices in the future. Here are some of the long-term benefits:
- Lower bills for years to come
- More control over your energy use
- Better use of your solar panels
- A more self-sufficient home
- A smaller carbon footprint
It also adds value to your home. More buyers now look for solar and storage systems when house hunting.
What about the GivEnergy Gateway
The GivEnergy Gateway works with the All in One as the control hub for your system. It manages how power moves between your battery, solar panels, and the grid.
If there’s a power cut, it switches your home to run on stored battery power. This keeps your lights and key appliances working.
It also isolates your home from the grid during an outage so power can be used safely. You can use the GivEnergy app to see your usage, check battery levels, and change settings from anywhere.
