💰 AN ESTIMATED $8K SAVED IN 24 MONTHS AND NOW AIMING TO SAVE ANOTHER $950 A YEAR! 🔋☀️
This Drouin household was already covering approximately 88% of its electricity needs with solar and battery.
That’s a potential $15k in avoided electricity purchases, before counting any feed-in credits!
But there was one thing holding them back: the battery storage size and running out before sunrise. 🌙
Around 99.2% of their remaining grid usage happens in the early morning, once their original 9.6 kWh battery has emptied.
Our solution? MORE STORAGE. 👏
This week we returned to upgrade their battery from 9.6 kWh to a massive 25.6 kWh — giving them more capacity to carry daytime solar through the night.
Their powerhouse setup now includes:
☀️ 30.4 kW of solar
⚡ 20 kW Sungrow hybrid inverter
🔋 25.6 kWh of battery storage
🏡 Whole-home backup
Originally installed by our team during construction in late 2024, the system has already generated more than 68,000 kWh of solar electricity.
With the larger battery targeting those early-morning imports, there’s potential to avoid approximately another $950 a year in electricity purchases.
We removed the original wall bracket and installed the expanded battery stack on the ground now that the customer’s concreting is complete. Check out the before and after! 📸
Does your battery run out before the sun comes up? Let’s see what an upgrade could do for you whilst the rebates are high, and pricing is low.
