Why Houston Homeowners Need Battery Backup Systems
Stay Powered During Outages
Houston experiences frequent power outages from storms and heatwaves, and a battery backup ensures your home stays powered and safe.
Address Texas Grid Vulnerabilities
The ERCOT-managed Texas grid and CenterPoint Energy face frequent outages and instability, but a battery gives you independence, reducing reliance on both.
Combat Rising Energy Costs
Rising energy costs from CenterPoint’s 50% delivery charge hike can be offset by using a battery to store off-peak energy and reduce grid reliance.
Flexibility in Energy Plans
In Houston’s deregulated energy market, a battery allows you to take advantage of plans like free nights, buyback rates, and virtual power plants for savings.
Maximize Your Solar Savings
Instead of selling excess solar energy back at low rates, a battery allows you to store and use that energy, maximizing your investment.
Protect Against Rate Fluctuations
Grid-tied systems rely on inconsistent solar buyback rates, but a battery provides flexibility and ensures you get the most from your solar system.
