Solar + storage, designed for Colorado

Power that stays on when the grid doesn't.

Panels alone cut your bill. Panels plus a battery keep the lights, furnace fan, and fridge running through outages and wildfire-season shutoffs. Colorado Peak Power matches you with licensed installers who design solar-plus-storage every day.

Why add a battery

Resilience you can actually feel.

⚡

Outage backup

Wind storms, heavy snow, and planned wildfire-safety shutoffs are part of living here. A battery carries your essentials — or your whole home — without a generator.

◐

Time-of-use arbitrage

Many Colorado utilities now charge more in the evening. Store cheap midday solar and use it when rates spike.

▭

EV-ready

Charge your car on your own production. Installers can size the array and panel upgrade for a Level 2 charger from day one.

Solar only vs. solar + storage

What changes when you add a battery.

Solar only

Lower bill, lower upfront cost
System shuts off during an outage (grid-tied safety)
Excess goes to the utility at their credit rate
Great if outages are rare and rates are flat

Solar + battery

Backup power for essentials or whole home
Keep your own excess instead of selling it cheap
Shift usage away from peak-rate hours
Battery qualifies for the same 30% federal credit

FAQ

Good questions.

Can a battery run my furnace in winter?

Gas furnaces draw very little electricity (the blower fan and controls), so yes — that's one of the most common backup loads in Colorado. Electric resistance heat is a different story; your installer will size for what you want covered.

How long will a battery last in an outage?

Depends on what you run. A typical 10–13 kWh battery covering essentials (fridge, lights, furnace fan, internet) lasts a day or more, and recharges from your panels when the sun comes up.

Which battery brands?

Installers in our network work with the major residential systems. They'll recommend based on your loads and budget rather than a single brand.
