An independent educational platform dedicated to providing Spanish consumers with unbiased information about home battery storage systems.
Red Eficiencia exists to address a significant gap in the Spanish energy market: the lack of objective, accessible information about home battery storage systems. As battery technology becomes more affordable and widespread, consumers face increasingly complex decisions about whether and how to invest in energy storage.
The market is saturated with manufacturer marketing materials and sales-driven information that often obscures practical realities. Technical specifications are presented without context, economic claims lack verification, and compatibility issues are frequently minimized or ignored entirely.
We created this platform to provide an alternative—a resource where Spanish homeowners can access factual information about battery technology, understand real-world performance expectations, and evaluate economic viability for their specific circumstances, all without commercial pressure or bias toward any particular product or manufacturer.
We maintain no commercial relationships with battery manufacturers, distributors, installation companies, or any other entities in the energy storage industry. This independence allows us to present information objectively without conflicts of interest.
Our platform is funded independently and operates without advertising revenue from industry participants. We do not receive commissions, referral fees, or any form of compensation related to battery sales or installations.
Our content is designed to educate rather than persuade. We explain how battery technologies work, what performance characteristics matter, and how to evaluate whether storage makes economic sense for specific situations.
We provide frameworks for understanding technical specifications, methods for calculating economic viability, and context for interpreting manufacturer claims. Our goal is to enable informed decision-making, not to promote battery adoption.
We break down complex battery technologies into understandable concepts. From lithium-ion chemistry variations to battery management systems, we explain how these technologies function and what their characteristics mean for homeowners.
We distinguish between rated specifications and real-world performance. Manufacturer datasheets present ideal conditions; we explain how batteries actually perform in typical residential applications with variable temperatures and usage patterns.
We provide methods for evaluating battery economics without making specific financial claims. Our frameworks help homeowners calculate their own scenarios based on their electricity rates, consumption patterns, and local conditions.
We summarize relevant Spanish regulations for battery installation, explaining requirements that installers must meet and standards that systems must comply with. This helps homeowners understand what to expect from professional installations.
Battery technology and market conditions evolve continuously. We update our technical comparisons quarterly to reflect new products, price changes, and emerging technologies. Information remains current and relevant.
While we don't provide personalized recommendations, we're available to clarify technical concepts or explain general principles. Our goal is to help consumers understand the information they need to make their own informed decisions.
The home battery storage market involves significant financial decisions. Systems can cost thousands of euros, and their economic viability depends heavily on individual circumstances that vary considerably between households.
When information sources have commercial interests—whether direct sales, manufacturer relationships, or installation partnerships—there's inherent pressure to present battery storage favorably regardless of whether it makes sense for specific situations.
Independent information allows consumers to evaluate battery storage on its actual merits for their circumstances, without filtering through commercial agendas. Some homes benefit significantly from battery storage; many others do not. Honest assessment requires independence from sales incentives.
We're transparent about our approach and methodology. If you have questions about how we gather information or maintain independence, we're happy to explain.
