Australia’s Home Battery Revolution Deserves Beautiful Protection. Australia's homeowners have invested $15B+ in home batteries—over 561,000 systems installed by 2026, powering the shift to resilient, solar-powered living. But here's the hidden truth: 75% face brutal North/West solar heat gain (60-80% through front panels), slashing battery life by 20-30% and triggering costly replacements. We aim to remedy that situation with solutions and products using Home automation and Battery Sunshields that are aesthetically pleasing and super intuitive for homeowners.

Australia leads the world in rooftop solar and home battery adoption. Hundreds of thousands of households have invested in energy independence, lower bills and a bit of insulation from a volatile energy market.
Every one of those systems is mounted outside — on a wall, in the weather, in one of the harshest climates in the developed world.
Battskin exists to protect that investment.
Home batteries and solar inverters usually go wherever the electrician can reach the switchboard. In a great many Australian homes, that means a north- or west-facing wall — the walls that take the full brunt of the afternoon sun, day after day, summer after summer. Sustained heat. Relentless UV. Weather that doesn't let up.
Modern batteries and inverters are built for outdoor installation, and they're built well. But manufacturers are consistent on one point in their own installation guidance: keep the unit out of direct sunlight wherever it's practical to do so.
There's a reason for that. Sustained heat exposure raises operating temperatures, and higher operating temperatures can reduce efficiency, accelerate wear on internal components and shorten the working life of equipment that cost thousands of dollars to install.
Shade isn't a nice-to-have. It's what the manual asks for.
Our mission is simple: protect Australia's energy investments with battery covers and solar inverter covers that improve performance and street appeal at the same time.
Bulky enclosures trap the heat they're meant to manage. DIY awnings look exactly like DIY awnings. Battskin covers are designed to do neither. Every product is built to:
Designed and made in Australia, for Australian conditions.
Our battery screen covers are engineered to suit many of Australia's leading battery brands, including:
Not sure whether your system is covered? Send us your model and we'll give you a straight answer.
The inverter is the heart of every solar power system — and one of the components most sensitive to heat. When it sits in direct sun through the hottest part of the day, performance can suffer at exactly the time you most want it working.
Our solar inverter covers are purpose-built to provide shade and weather protection while maintaining the airflow clearances manufacturers require. Protection without suffocation.
Suitable for many leading inverter brands, including:
For most homeowners, the battery and inverter end up somewhere highly visible — the side wall, the carport, occasionally the front of the house. Traditional covers tend to look industrial, bulky and obviously bolted on.
Battskin covers are designed to turn functional hardware into an architectural feature: clean lines, considered proportions, and finishes chosen to complement modern coastal, Hamptons, contemporary and architect-designed homes.
Your energy system should look like it was part of the plan.
Your home battery and solar inverter represent a serious investment in energy independence, lower electricity bills and a more sustainable future. A purpose-built cover is a simple, one-time way to support durability, protect performance and lift the look of your home.
Beautifully designed. Engineered for Australian conditions. Built to protect the future of home energy.
