A week ago we brought on line a 14 kW solar system with 48 kW-h of battery back up storage. This homeowner can be off grid for years at a time with little or no interaction with the utility.
As we move forward and develop new technologies, battery interactive systems with become more affordable and commomplace.
For now, this is still a custom installation with batteries and inverters that may not be cost effective for everyone.
If you have critical loads or are running a business, a battery back up system can pay for itself in less than a year.
We have several business that remain operational during power outages. Enabling 40 people to keep working has enormous value and pays for the battery back up element in one day.
