FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
HOME BATTERY BACKUP SYSTEMS
A home battery backup system stores excess energy generated by your solar panels for use during power outages or when solar production is low. It provides continuous power to your home, ensuring that essential appliances and systems remain operational.
The system stores energy generated by your solar panels in a battery. During a power outage or when solar energy production is low, the battery discharges stored energy to power your home. The system seamlessly switches between solar, battery, and grid power to ensure a consistent energy supply.
Benefits include energy independence, protection against power outages, potential savings on electricity bills, and contribution to a greener environment. Additionally, Oregon offers incentives to reduce the cost of installation.
Yes, Oregon offers several incentives for installing home battery backup systems. These include the Residential Energy Tax Credit (RETC), state rebates, and federal tax credits. Local utility companies may also offer incentives.
The cost varies depending on the size of the system, the type of battery, and installation specifics. On average, a home battery backup system can cost between $10,000 and $20,000. However, incentives and rebates can significantly reduce the overall expense.
Most home battery backup systems have a lifespan of 10 to 15 years. The lifespan can vary based on usage, maintenance, and environmental factors. Regular maintenance and optimal usage can extend the life of the system.
The ability to power your entire home depends on the size of the battery and your home’s energy consumption. Larger batteries can power more appliances for longer periods. Many homeowners choose to power essential systems like refrigerators, lights, and medical equipment.
The battery is primarily recharged by the solar panels installed on your home. When solar production exceeds your home’s energy needs, the excess energy is stored in the battery. The battery can also be charged using grid power when necessary.
The most common types of batteries for home backup systems are lithium-ion and lead-acid batteries. Lithium-ion batteries are more popular due to their higher efficiency, longer lifespan, and lower maintenance requirements compared to lead-acid batteries.

What Our Customers Are Saying
About Us
I received four proposals for a 8.9kw solar project on my 3 year old house in Battle Ground. I went with Unity Solar. They not only had the best price, they answered all my questions about the process, and were on the Clark PUD Solar Contractors list. They finished work ahead of schedule and on budget. I got positive reviews from prior customers. The system is online and working perfectly. I strongly recommend Unity Solar.
They did a wonderful job installing my solar system. Tried several other places that seemed like used car sales, but with Unity Solar you deal with the electricians directly. Explained the latest Q Cell panels, tax credit, system options, financing options, and even took care of the permitting process. Enjoyed a $300 savings on my first month alone. Highly recommend! You even get an easy phone app that tracks each panels production.
