Battery Storage & Backup Power

Backup power when it actually matters.

Battery systems help homeowners maintain power during outages, manage energy usage intelligently, and reduce exposure to rising utility costs — not just when the grid is working perfectly.

What Batteries Actually Do

Storage systems are about resilience, not just convenience.

Batteries can store excess solar production, support the home during outages, reduce peak utility exposure, and help homeowners manage energy more strategically — year round.

Store Excess Energy

Capture unused daytime solar production for use in the evening, overnight, or during high-rate periods.

Outage Protection

Automatic backup during utility interruptions — no generator, no manual transfer, no extension cords.

Peak Management

Reduce dependence on utility power during high-rate periods — cut your exposure to rising electricity costs.

Energy Visibility

Track storage, charging, and discharge behavior in real time — understand what your home is actually doing.

During An Outage

Homeowners should understand what stays powered.

Backup systems are configured differently depending on goals, budget, and electrical priorities. There is no one-size-fits-all answer — the right design depends on what matters most to your household.

Essential CircuitsCritical appliances — refrigerator, lights, outlets, medical equipment — remain powered.

Whole Home BackupLarger storage systems support broader coverage across the entire house.

Automatic SwitchingSystems transition automatically — no manual steps required when the power goes out.

Runtime ExpectationsDepends on storage capacity and energy usage. We size the system to your actual load — not a generic estimate.

The honest take

A battery is not a generator. It is a resilience tool.

Used right, it cuts peak utility exposure and runs critical loads through outages. Used wrong — oversized, undersized, or poorly configured — it is a $14,000 ornament sitting on your wall.

The goal of a backup review is not to sell you storage. It is to help you understand whether your home's goals justify it — and if so, what size and configuration actually makes sense for your situation.

What A Battery Can Support

Every home is different. The right system matches your priorities.

Critical Load Only

Refrigerator, key outlets, modem, medical devices, and essential lighting. Small system, lower cost, covers the basics through most outages.

~10–13.5 kWh

Partial Home Backup

Covers most circuits except heavy loads like HVAC and electric vehicle charging. The most common configuration for New England homes.

~20–27 kWh

Whole Home Backup

Full house coverage including HVAC, well pump, and high-draw appliances. Pairs best with solar to recharge and extend runtime indefinitely.

~40+ kWh

Battery + Solar Together

Solar charges the battery. The battery extends your independence.

Without storage, solar production goes to the grid during the day and you buy power back at night — often at higher rates. With a battery, you store what you produce and use it when you need it most.

During extended outages, solar panels recharge the battery each morning — giving you continuous power indefinitely, as long as the sun shines.
