Solar & battery storage—after your home is efficient

The smartest way to go solar is to fix energy waste first. Once your home is insulated, weatherized, and electrified, you need fewer panels and can get more value from battery storage.

Lower your energy usage before sizing your solar system
Reduce the number of panels needed (smaller system)
Get more value from battery storage during peak hours
Cut delivery and utility costs by producing energy on-site

Sun Home helps you determine when solar and storage make sense—after capturing all available efficiency incentives.
