Battery Backup

When the grid goes down,
your lights stay on

Outages, public safety shutoffs, rate hikes at dinnertime — California’s grid keeps giving you reasons to want a backup plan. A home battery stores your solar power so you can run on your own sunshine at night, dodge peak-hour rates, and keep the essentials running when the neighborhood goes dark.

Why Batteries Now

Solar without storage leaves money on the table

California changed the rules — and batteries went from luxury to strategy.

💵

Use it, don’t sell it

Under current net metering rules, power you export earns far less than it used to. Storing your midday solar and using it at night keeps that value in your house instead of giving it to the utility.

🔌

Outage insurance

Wildfire shutoffs and grid failures don’t announce themselves. A battery keeps your refrigerator, lights, internet, and medical equipment running while the street goes dark.

Beat peak rates

Time-of-use plans charge the most exactly when your family uses the most — evenings. Run on stored sunshine during peak hours and let the meter idle.

Built Around Your Home

Sized for the way you actually live

A battery that’s too small leaves you in the dark; one that’s too big wastes your money. We size storage from your real usage — what you need to protect, how long outages run in your area, and how your rate plan charges you.

  • New solar + battery systems designed together
  • Battery retrofits for existing solar installs
  • Essential-loads or whole-home backup configurations
  • Installed by our own licensed crews — permitted and inspected
  • Pairs with an EV charger for cheap overnight charging
"A solar system without a battery is like a paycheck you have to spend the day you earn it. Storage is what turns your roof’s production into power you control — on your schedule, at your prices."

2

Licensed Install

Our crews install and commission the system with your new or existing solar — permits and inspection included.

3

Sleep Easy

Outages become non-events, peak rates become irrelevant, and your solar finally works around the clock.

Common Questions

Battery questions, answered

Can I add a battery to my existing solar system?
In most cases, yes — battery retrofits are one of the most common projects we quote. We’ll assess your current inverter and panel setup and recommend the cleanest integration path.
How long will a battery power my home?
It depends on capacity and what you’re running. An essential-loads setup (refrigerator, lights, internet) can ride through most outages comfortably; with solar recharging the battery each day, you can run indefinitely through extended shutoffs.
Whole-home or essential loads — which should I choose?
Essential-loads backup costs less and covers what matters most. Whole-home backup keeps everything running, including AC, but needs more capacity. We’ll walk you through both with real numbers for your house.
Do batteries make sense without solar?
They can — charging from the grid off-peak and discharging at peak still cuts time-of-use bills, and you keep the outage protection. But battery + solar is where the economics really sing.
What rebates are available for batteries?
Battery incentive programs in California have changed significantly and several closed recently. Rather than quote something stale, we’ll check what’s actually available for your address and rate plan when you call.
