Why Install Solar Battery Backup in the Pikes Peak Region?

Power outages are becoming more frequent as we see increased incidents of inclement weather and preemptive shutdowns of the grid to prevent dangerous fires. With the grid going down more frequently and for longer periods, people are finding that energy independence is more important than ever. 

Colorado Springs has trusted Triton Roofing & Solar for their quality craftsmanship and exceptional service. Triton is a Best of the Springs winner with over 50 5-star reviews on Google. 

Triton Energy Solutions is the perfect complement to a solar energy system. 

Power lines on a hot day in the sun can be shut down if there is a high risk of fire.
Solar panels on your home's roof can charge a battery.

How Does Solar Battery Backup Work?

In Colorado Springs Utilities (CSU) and Mountain View Electric (MVEA) territories, you can charge backup batteries from the grid or from solar. When you charge from the grid you pay your standard rate, and it doesn’t require the investment of a solar energy system.

When you charge from an onsite solar system, you’re using a much less expensive source of electricity that is only dependent on the sun. That means when the grid goes down—as long as the sun is shining—you have a source of electricity to continually recharge your batteries.

With Energy Wise (time of use) rates now in effect for CSU customers, an Energy Storage System (ESS) can power your entire home during the peak rate time from 5-9pm. This is referred to as peak load shaving. An energy storage system combined with solar panels can protect you from more expensive peak demand charges from your utility.

If saving money on your electric bill, and having the resiliency to be “off-grid” for months, is of interest to you, reach out for a free consultation.
