Why Get a Solar Battery?

Create and Store Your Own Reliable Energy.

Use What you Generate, Even at Night

The solar battery system allows solar-generated energy to be stored for use at night when you need it most.

Help Your Community by Using Your Own Energy

Using solar batteries lets you run appliances, like a water heater or HVAC, with stored energy, all without straining the grid when your community needs it most.

Stay Powered, Even During Outages

Battery systems paired with solar panels generate and store their own energy, even when the grid is down, keeping your home powered.

Why Does CPA Offer the Sun Storage Rebate?

We want to help you get a return on your investment sooner and offer an incentive for completing your solar battery installation.

By adding a battery, you can use your own solar energy when electricity costs are high, when the sun sets, and during outages.

Our community becomes stronger and more resilient against blackouts and other emergencies when we decrease electric demand from the grid. When solar batteries are used as a backup power source during an outage, our communities effectively limit their exposure to harmful emissions that stem from gas generators and burning fuels to heat and power homes.

Electricity discharged from a solar battery to the power grid helps provide clean energy to the entire community. Solar batteries also help to decrease power outages that can be caused by high electricity demand.
