Solar Battery Storage
Solar battery storage takes your solar energy system to the next level and provides benefits you don’t get with solar panels alone. From blackout protection to 24/7 access to solar power, the benefits of solar battery storage speak for themselves.

Our Smart Solar approach uses affordable energy efficiency improvements like insulation and air sealing to reduce your home’s energy consumption so you can install a smaller, more affordable solar panel and battery system.
Benefits of Solar Battery Backup
-
Solar batteries give you reliable backup power during an outage—a benefit you don’t get with solar panels alone. Grid-tied solar panels are automatically turned off during a power outage because they create a safety hazard for utility workers. If you have a solar battery, however, your system can temporarily disconnect from the electric grid and continue to operate during a power outage so your lights stay on and your family stays comfortable.
-
If you’re on a time-of-use (TOU) rate plan with your utility, a solar battery bank is invaluable. On-peak hours are usually in the evenings when your solar panels are not producing electricity. With a battery, you can use stored energy during on-peak hours to avoid higher TOU rates.
-
Solar batteries store the excess electricity your solar panels generate during the day. You can use your stored solar energy to power your home at any time, even when the sun isn’t shining.
-
By allowing you to not only generate but also store electricity, solar panel and battery systems give you more control over your own energy production. They reduce your reliance on your utility and help you become energy independent.
