The Need for Energy Independence

Connecticut homeowners are no strangers to power outages. From severe winter storms to summer heat waves, grid reliability is a growing concern. But what if you could keep your lights on, your food fresh, and your family comfortable, even when the grid goes down? That's where solar battery backup comes in.


What is Solar Battery Backup?

Solar battery backup is a system that pairs solar panels with energy storage technology. This combination allows you to store excess solar energy for use when the sun isn't shining or during power outages. It's like having your own personal power plant, giving you control over your energy supply and usage.


Benefits of Solar Battery Backup for Connecticut Homes

Installing a solar battery backup system offers numerous advantages:

  1. Energy Independence: Reduce reliance on the grid and utility companies

  2. Blackout Protection: Keep essential appliances running during outages

  3. Lower Electric Bills: Use stored energy during peak rate hours

  4. Increased Home Value: Energy storage adds appeal for potential buyers

  5. Environmental Impact: Reduce your carbon footprint


How Solar Battery Backup Works

  1. Solar panels generate electricity during the day

  2. Excess energy charges the battery system

  3. When grid power is unavailable, the battery system powers your home

  4. Seamless switching ensures a continuous power supply
