Solar batteries store surplus energy generated by your solar panels during the day. You can utilize this stored energy at night or during cloudy weather instead of drawing power from the utility grid. Battery storage provides a dependable power supply even when the sun isn’t shining, allowing you to save more on your monthly utility bills.

The solar batteries we install are built to last more than ten years. Additionally, your battery storage includes a limited manufacturer’s warranty for the duration of your plan, which can be either 10 or 15 years.

A larger battery offers the ability to supply power for an extended period. Based on your energy requirements, a properly designed system can keep your property powered during outages lasting from a few hours to several days. However, the backup duration will depend on the battery’s capacity and your property’s energy usage.

A small home battery typically starts at around $6,000, while larger, more powerful systems can cost $15,000 or more. The price of solar batteries varies significantly depending on capacity, brand, and installation. Therefore, when assessing the overall value of investing in a solar battery, it’s important to consider the reliable power it provides during outages and any potential incentives.

It depends. A battery can be beneficial if you’re seeking energy independence or need to provide backup power during outages, but thanks to Net Metering it is not required to go solar. When considering a battery, consider factors like upfront costs, battery lifespan, net metering and local incentives to make an informed decision.

Solar panels, when connected to the grid, automatically shut off during power outages for safety purposes. By incorporating a battery storage system, you can store surplus energy generated during the day and use it when the grid is down. This configuration ensures a reliable power supply during blackouts.
