Home battery storage

Effective July 21, 2026Version 1.0

Store energy for the priorities that matter

A home battery can support outage backup, solar self-consumption, or time-of-use management. The right configuration depends on usable energy in kWh, power in kW, surge needs, chosen backup circuits, solar production, and local interconnection rules.

Capacity is not the same as output

Energy capacity describes how much can be stored; power describes how quickly it can be delivered. Air conditioning, pumps, electric heat, and other large loads may require special design or multiple units. No battery page can promise universal whole-home backup.

Retrofit or new solar

AC-coupled systems may be useful for some existing arrays, while integrated inverter systems may fit new designs. Compatibility, commissioning, warranty, and monitoring should be confirmed in writing. Compare storage options or request a system match.
