Solar Battery Installation in San Diego

Solar Battery Installation in San Diego

Home battery backup so you keep power when the grid goes down — and get more value out of every kilowatt your solar produces.

With SDG&E rates and NEM 3.0, storing your own solar energy is more valuable than sending it back to the grid. Batteries give you backup power and a smarter way to use what your panels make.

Why batteries make sense in San Diego

Under NEM 3.0, exporting solar to the grid pays a lot less than it used to. Batteries let you use your own solar in the evening instead of buying expensive peak-rate power back from SDG&E.

They also cover you during outages. Public safety power shutoffs, storms and grid events are a real thing — a battery keeps essentials running.

What battery installation includes

We size the battery based on your usage, existing solar and what you actually want backed up. From there we handle design, permits, install, inverter integration and utility approval.

Placement matters — batteries need proper ventilation, clearance and mounting. We plan the location around your garage, side yard or exterior wall so it's clean and code-compliant.

Pairing batteries with existing solar

We add batteries to systems we didn't originally install all the time. In most cases we can integrate storage without replacing your existing panels or inverter, depending on what you already have.

How long a battery install takes

Most residential battery installs take one to two days on-site. Timing depends on how many units, whether the existing electrical panel needs upgrades, and utility approval.
