Why Install a Home Backup Battery System?

Whether you are installing solar plus battery backup or a standalone battery backup system, Namaste Solar’s team of certified installers offers the best-in-class battery solutions for your whole home.

When you combine solar energy with a home battery backup system, your solar panels charge the battery during the day. Your battery then powers your essentials when the sun is down or acts as a seamless backup even when the power grid is down. Home battery backups increase the resiliency of your home, can further reduce your utility bill, and put you on a path toward a zero-emissions home.

And right now there are multiple incentives for home battery installations including, Xcel’s Renewable Battery Connect program.

Wondering what it’s like to have a backup battery? Allison & Steve D. got solar + battery storage from Namaste Solar in 2024. For them, “[batteries are] a way to hedge against energy insecurity in the region. We’ve had two power outages here since the beginning of the year, and our neighbors have been quick to note that we’re the only ones on the block with power.”

They also use their battery for energy arbitrage. “With the battery we’re able to do energy arbitrage with it and sell energy back when it’s most expensive. This maximizes our credit and buys us more winter months when we won’t have electric bills.”

How Does Home Battery Backup Work?

During the day, the sun shines on your solar roof panels, powering your home. Any excess power from your panels during the day goes to charges your battery. At night, or whenever you program your system to discharge, your home will draw electricity from your battery, utilizing clean, renewable energy.

If the power goes out, your home battery backup will seamlessly kick in to power your home. Most home battery backup systems are not designed to support 100% of your home’s consumption when the grid is down but rather keep “essential” items online, such as your fridge, freezer, lights, and internet.

How Much Does Home Battery Installation Cost?

The price of home battery systems is based on how many batteries you want to install. You’ll need to consider which appliances you want to operate and how many hours you want to operate them, without recharging the system from the sun. Namaste Solar also offers zero-down, low-interest financing.

Additionally, for Colorado residents living within Xcel’s electricity grid, purchasing a battery can qualify you for Xcel’s Renewable Battery Connect incentive program, where you can save on both your battery installation and annually for your home’s participation in the program. And some battery purchases qualify for significant rebates in the cities of Denver and Fort Collins.

Our non-commissioned advisors can review options with you and help you figure out which type of system will best fit your needs.

My system has been up for 2 months now. Throughout the process, everyone at Namaste has been responsive and answered all my questions. I'm quite happy with my system and I'd recommend Namaste to anyone wanting solar.

Update: after a hail storm, Namaste worked with the GC for repairs to take down and then reinstall all the panels. The panels are doing great work for me and I'm still happy we used Namaste for all the work.
Namaste was professional and communicative throughout the process. Each step along the way was explained and followed through. Much appreciated!
