Energy Storage Solutions For Your Home

Solar Battery Back-Up/Tesla Powerwall


Solar Backup systems (also known as Energy Storage Systems) combine solar PV and a home battery to continue providing power independent of the utility grid or time of day.

While most solar systems are required to turn off during a utility grid outage for safety concerns, solar backup systems continue generating power and storing energy in a battery for 24/7 use, providing you peace-of-mind and protecting your home from potential outages.

Solar Alternatives specialists know how important it is to have access to power, no matter the state of the grid system.

How Do Home Battery Systems Work?

Home battery systems, such as the Tesla Powerwall, raise the value of a solar system by increasing the self-consumption of solar energy and decreasing the need to tap into the grid.

Excess solar energy collected in the daytime is absorbed by the battery and used in the home at night, increasing the system’s overall cost efficiency and energy availability.

Why You Should Invest In A Home Battery

With the cost of storage systems such as the Tesla Powerwall and Generac PWRCell at an all-time low, a solar storage system is a smart investment that will continue to fuel your energy needs when the rest of the grid is dark.

Remember to ask about solar backup when consulting with the Solar Alternatives team about your solar installation service.

Where to Install Solar Batteries in Home

Solar batteries are often installed indoors in a utility room, basement, or garage.

They are sometimes installed outdoors with a weatherproof covering. A battery needs to be in an area with ventilation and away from direct sunlight.

Some batteries are designed to be wall-mounted for safety and temperature regulation.

What Is A Powerwall?

A power wall is a durable, large-scale home battery that stores sustainable power from your solar panels for on-demand use.

Solar Alternatives, Inc. recommends the inclusion of a Powerwall in your sustainable power system because of its revolutionary, seamless technology and capability to adapt to your lifestyle over time.

Tesla’s Powerwall can be monitored and controlled via your smartphone through its app utilizing a completely automated system.

The liquid thermal controls and touch-safe technology make this home battery a safe and highly efficient option and the integrated battery inverter makes this the most cost-efficient option as a home battery when comparing cost per kWh.
