A battery is only needed if you want backup during power cuts or run off-grid. Lithium (LiFePO4) batteries last longer and need no maintenance; a 51.2V 100Ah (about 5 kWh) lithium battery costs roughly ₹45,000–80,000, while a 100Ah lead-acid battery costs about ₹8,000–11,000. Batteries attract 18% GST and are not covered by the PM Surya Ghar subsidy.

| Tubular lead-acid | 1,200–1,500 cycles | Low upfront cost, needs water top-up |
| SMF/VRLA | 500–1,000 cycles | Sealed, shorter life |
