Home Battery Backup & Storage Systems
Solar Battery Energy Storage for Your Bay Area Home
Power Your Home During a PG&E Outage - Protect Your Investment in Home Solar
Home Solar Energy and a Battery Backup System go together naturally, delivering great financial and environmental benefits. For homeowners who want true energy independence and control of their power, it's the perfect solution. Solar Energy Battery Storage allows you to generate, store, and manage your energy usage. During a PG&E Public Safety Power Shutoff or grid outage, you have a reliable source of power for your home that puts you in control - you choose how much you want to backup. There is also the option of a Savings Battery, which will only store and discharge electricity daily. It will not provide backup power during a power outage but is more affordable. Battery systems can allow your solar system to best take advantage of changing PG&E electricity rates and monopolistic utility policies, adding value and energy security to your home.
Reliable Power is Essential
Almost everything runs on electricity, so reliability is essential. Extreme weather and PG&E Power Shut-Downs are causing more outages than ever. Installing a home solar battery storage solution allows you to maintain a sustained power supply during power outages. When your solar panels produce more electricity than you can use in your home, the excess is stored in the battery pack instead of being sent back into the electric grid. Later, when your panels aren't producing enough electricity (such as at night or stormy weather), you can use the electricity stored in your home battery instead of having to buy it from your utility. In combination with solar panels it will enable you to supply yourself with clean energy - making you energy independent and protecting you from energy price hikes.
Best in Energy Storage Technology
SolarCraft has experience with the best in energy storage technology, including Enphase Enpower, Tesla Powerwall, Sonnenbatterie Eco, LG Chem RESU and ElectrIQ. An energy storage battery is not just a battery, it's an intelligent storage system that automatically adjusts the energy usage in your household. It is a fully integrated energy storage system that includes an inverter and energy management software, allowing property owners with solar that install a home battery, the ability to store excess solar electricity for use later in the day. Our solar battery systems make generating, storing and managing clean solar energy seamless.
Best in Solar & Storage Design-Build Craftsmanship
Many competitors oversimplify the sales process and only tell clients what they want to hear. SolarCraft has expert energy consultants and installation crews that tell clients what they need to know. SolarCraft sets realistic expectations and informs clients how solar-battery systems work during different times of the year (especially during fire season). We evaluate which loads can be backed up and for how long and inform clients of the cost of operating a battery system. We also explain the unique factors that determine when and if Time-of-Use Savings can be achieved with batteries.
SolarCraft has over 40 years experience navigating the North Bay's local jurisdictions, utilities, CALFIRE, and state regulations for our clients.
