With various plans to fit your budget, battery storage may be more affordable than you think.
Benefits of home solar batteries
There are many reasons why you might want to add battery backup to your solar system. Here are just a few:
- • Feel greater peace of mind during power outages
- • Have a continuous supply of clean, affordable energy
- • Distance yourself from the utility grid*
Learn why you should add battery backup.
Factors that affect cost
- • System size: Your energy use and plan for power outages will determine the number of solar panels and batteries you need. If you only want to power a few essential items during an outage, you may only need a couple batteries, which will keep costs lower. Installing additional batteries to cover a larger portion of your home for a longer period of time will increase the overall cost but provide greater energy security and convenience.
- • Budget: Your financial goals play a crucial role in determining the best approach for going solar.

Upfront costs & payment plans
Adding battery backup when you go solar may be more affordable than you expect. There are various low-cost financing options and warranties of up to 25 years. One popular way to go solar is with a lease. This no-upfront-cost option allows you to bundle your solar and battery payments into one affordable monthly bill. Chat with a Trinity Solar Expert to explore your options.
Incentives
Depending on how you go solar with battery backup, you may be eligible for state and federal incentives. These help reduce the cost of your system.
Reduced grid reliance
By drawing on your stored solar power before pulling from the grid, you rely more on affordable, clean energy and less on expensive utility energy. This combination of solar panels and battery storage can significantly reduce your overall utility expenses.
Low maintenance costs
Home solar batteries require virtually zero maintenance because there are no moving parts. This translates to minimal maintenance costs, which is a step up from traditional generators that should be serviced at least once per year.
Preventing losses
When the power goes out, you don’t know if it’ll come back on in ten minutes or ten hours. Grid downtime can cause food to spoil or chilled medicine to go bad, leading to expensive losses. Using solar battery power during outages can save you the cost of replacing these necessities.
