Solar + Battery Backup

In Connecticut, storms and grid outages are a reality. A solar battery stores your excess daytime energy, ensuring your home stays powered when the grid goes down. Protect your critical loads—like refrigeration, sump pumps, well pumps, and medical devices.

Electrical Panel Upgrades

Modernizing your home energy starts at the panel. Many older Connecticut homes need an electrical panel upgrade (heavy-up) to safely handle the new load of solar panels, battery inverters, EV chargers, and heat pumps. We assess this upfront.

Solar Questions, Answered

Is solar worth it in Connecticut?

Yes. With high utility rates from Eversource and UI, plus the 30% Federal Tax Credit and state incentives, solar provides a strong return on investment for most CT homeowners.

How much does solar installation cost in CT?

Costs vary by roof size and energy needs, but most systems range from $15,000 to $30,000 before incentives. Financing options often mean your monthly solar payment is lower than your old electric bill.

How long does installation take?

The physical installation usually takes 1-2 days. The entire process, including system design, permitting, and utility interconnection, typically takes 4-8 weeks.

Do I need a new roof first?

We will inspect your roof during the site assessment. If your roof is nearing the end of its life, it’s best to replace it before installing solar. We can often coordinate this with our roofing partners.

Do I need a battery?

Batteries are not required, but they are highly recommended in CT to keep your power on during grid outages and storms. They also help maximize your use of the solar energy you generate.

Can solar power my whole house?

Yes, a properly sized solar system can offset 100% of your home’s electrical usage over the course of a year, though you will remain grid-tied for night-time usage unless you go fully off-grid with extensive batteries.

Can solar work during outages?

Standard grid-tied solar panels shut down during an outage for the safety of utility workers. To have power during an outage, you must have a solar battery backup system.

Do I need an electrical panel upgrade?

We’ll review your panel during our assessment. Many older homes upgrading to solar, batteries, and EV chargers will require a panel upgrade (heavy-up) to 200 amps to safely handle the load.

Can I add an EV charger with solar?

Absolutely. It is the perfect time to install a Level 2 EV charger, and you can offset the charging costs with your solar production.

What happens after installation?

After installation, we pass municipal inspections and apply for Permission to Operate (PTO) from your utility. Once granted, we turn the system on and you start saving!
