Every project starts with a personalized consultation. We'll meet with you (virtually or in person) to understand your home’s energy needs, review your past utility usage, and discuss your goals—whether it’s full energy independence, backup for critical loads, or just peace of mind during outages.
We'll also assess:
Your existing solar setup (if applicable)
Electrical panel capacity and load balance
Roof space or location for the battery system
Your utility provider’s interconnection requirements
At the end of this step, you’ll have a clear recommendation and estimate for your battery solution, with options for system sizes and pricing.

Once we’ve confirmed your ideal setup, our in-house team designs your battery system to meet both performance needs and building code requirements.
This includes:
Precise battery sizing based on usage + backup goals
Load management planning (essential circuits vs. whole-home)
Selecting compatible inverters and control systems
Submitting permit applications to your local building department
Preparing interconnection documentation for your utility (Xcel, etc.)
We handle every detail—including the paperwork—so you don’t have to.
