Keep the lights on when the grid doesn't.
Battery backup, whole home or the circuits that matter, installed by our own crew. Add solar and the battery recharges by day, so backup lasts as long as the outage.

Built around what has to keep running
Backup power starts with a list. Which circuits have to keep running when the grid is down: the well pump, the sump pump, the furnace or boiler, the refrigerator and freezer, the internet, the lights. We size the battery bank to that list and to how much power your home actually uses, or we back up the whole house.
The switch over to battery power is automatic and unnoticeable. The lights stay on and the stove clock does not reset. The first you hear about an outage is a neighbor mentioning theirs went out.
Or the whole home. Either way it is sized to the house and how it uses power.
How it works
Three steps. None of them require you to do anything.
The grid drops. The battery takes over.
The system senses the loss of utility power and moves your backed-up circuits onto the battery on its own. There is no switch to throw and nothing to go start.
Solar recharges the battery while the sun is up.
This is why we pair the two. With solar the battery recharges by day and the house keeps running. A battery on its own carries the house until it runs down. It still does its job, and solar can be added later.
A generator covers the long stretches.
For an outage that outlasts the battery and the array, a generator can be tied into the same system. When the bank runs low, the generator recharges it, so the home stays covered for the length of the outage.
Solar with the battery is the pairing we recommend
A battery on its own carries the house until it runs down. A battery paired with solar recharges while the sun is up and runs the house at the same time. Backup lasts as long as the outage rather than as long as the battery. That is the first reason we recommend solar with the battery. For the long stretches a generator can be tied into the same system.
On ordinary days the array lowers the electric bill. Depending on your utility’s rules, storing midday solar for the evening can be worth more than sending it back, and the battery is what stores it. It is also one project. We design the array and the battery as one system and the crew that designs it installs it. One permit set. One electrical tie-in. One install. Adding solar later means a second design, permit and crew visit.
Backup sized to your loads
Whole home or the circuits that matter. The switch to battery is automatic. The array recharges the battery by day and runs the house.
Works on ordinary days
The array lowers the bill. The battery holds midday solar for the evening, when the panels are done and the house is still running.
One project instead of two
One design, one permit set, one install, one electrical tie-in. The crew that designs it installs it.
If you want battery only, we install battery only. It is sized to your loads the same way and the battery can be expanded later.
Batteries we install
We install Enphase, EG4, EcoFlow, and other batteries at our clients’ request. The brand is a decision we make with you. The size is a decision we make from your loads and your usage.
Storage capacity and output sized to the home and its needs, not sold as a fixed package.
Modular batteries, so the bank can be expanded later if what you want backed up changes.
Monitored from your phone: state of charge, what the house is drawing, and, with solar, what the array is producing.
