Battery Storage 101: How to Keep the Lights On During an Outage

Battery storage systems capture excess energy generated by your solar or wind system so it can be used later — including during grid outages.

How It Works

When your renewable system produces more energy than your home is using, the surplus is stored in a battery instead of being sent back to the grid. When production drops (like at night), your home can draw from the stored energy.

Benefits of Battery Storage

• Backup power during outages
• Reduced reliance on the grid
• Potential savings during peak pricing periods
• Greater energy independence

Is It Right for You?
