There are plenty of people out there now who have been using batteries (often with solar panels and/or cheap rate overnight electricity) to reduce their bills, and dependency on the grid. Traditionally the best batteries were from fork lift trucks but car batteries from write-offs are also in use.
Read up on HEMS for more info (e.g. carbontrack.com.au/blog/what-is-a-home-energy-management-system/ )
The car battery will become increasingly important. At some point in the future (the technology is already there, just pricey) when you plug your car in, at times it will charge and at other times it will supply the grid (or your own needs).
