Recent developments in solar and battery technology can provide homeowners with a reliable way to power their homes in the event of electricity outages.

While solar panel systems alone cannot power your home when you are experiencing a blackout, a battery for solar panel energy storage can keep your lights on and support your basic power needs during blackouts. These sleek and modern systems are easy to install and have become more popular than ever. Due to frequent wildfires and the resulting PG&E Public Safety Power Shutoffs, many people are pursuing off-grid solar in California to ensure they have energy when these events occur.

There are a number of solar battery storage options out there. Our team of licensed experts will help you decide what is right for you.


A solar battery stores surplus energy generated from rooftop solar panels. When the sun has set, energy demand is high, or there is a black-out, you can use the energy stored in your solar battery to meet your energy needs at no extra cost.

Unlike a grid-tied solar system which automatically switches off, a solar battery storage system allows you to keep generating and consuming energy when the grid goes down. In addition, a solar battery helps you pursue the goal of energy self-consumption and ultimately energy-independence.
