Solar alone cuts your daytime bills — but most households use the bulk of their power in the evening. Adding a battery lets you store the day's generation and use it when the sun's down, and with backup capability you stay powered through grid outages too.

Whole-home vs essential-circuit backup
Backup isn't one-size-fits-all. Whole-home backup keeps everything running but needs the right battery capacity and switchboard configuration; essential-circuit backup protects fridges, lights, internet and medical equipment at a lower cost. We'll walk you through both options with real numbers for your home.
One installer, start to finish
Because our in-house electricians handle the solar, the battery, the switchboard and the backup wiring, there's no finger-pointing between trades if anything ever needs attention — one call, one responsible installer.
FAQs
Solar Panel & Battery with Backup Installation — common questions
What happens during a blackout?
With a backup-capable battery, your home switches to stored power automatically — essential circuits or the whole home, depending on the configuration we design with you.
Which batteries do you install?
We're certified installers for Tesla Powerwall and Sigenergy, and also install Sungrow, GoodWe and Fox ESS — all CEC-approved. We'll recommend the best fit for your usage and budget.
Single-phase or three-phase — does it matter?
Yes. Backup design differs between single- and three-phase homes. We install both and will explain exactly what will and won't be backed up before you sign.
Is a battery worth it with current rebates?
With the federal battery rebate reducing upfront cost and evening rates rising, payback periods have shortened substantially. We'll model it from your actual bills so the decision is based on numbers.
