Keep the lights on in a power outage with solar battery storage. StraightUp Solar offers several solar and storage options, from powering a few appliances to whole house backup. Our engineers can create a custom solution for your home through our storage platforms: Tesla Powerwall and Enphase IQ Battery.
Consider pairing your solar and battery with a smart SPAN panel to control your energy loads. We’re here to help you make the most of your solar system! Contact us today for a free solar battery storage solution quote.
With a solar + battery solution installed in your home, the excess energy from the sun charges your battery for nighttime use. In the morning, when the sun starts to shine, your solar system energy powers the home’s electrical devices first. As the sun rises in the afternoon, your home will consume less energy than your solar PV system produces. This excess energy is stored within the solar battery for later in day or nighttime use when solar energy production decreases.
Solar battery storage systems offer numerous advantages to residential areas:
Additionally, consider adding a Smart SPAN Panel to improve the flexibility of your solar battery storage during an outage.
The installation of solar battery storage is eligible for a tax credit, just like your solar PV system. In 2022, the federal Investment Tax Credit is 30% for battery storage and a solar PV system. The tax credit can apply if you install solar + battery or install the solar battery storage later. A new battery incentive of $300 per kWh of storage will soon be available for Illinois homeowners in Ameren Illinois or ComEd service territory, thanks to the Illinois Clean Energy Jobs Act. Learn more in our recent webinar recording “Get Charged Up! Your Guide to Illinois’ Solar Battery Rebate.”
Whether you’re looking to extend your existing solar system or are looking for a complete solar + battery solution, we can get you started with a custom quote.
