When the grid goes down, solar + battery keeps your lights on.
Severe storms across the northeastern United States left over 500,000 customers without electricity — some for days. These increasingly frequent events highlight the vulnerability of centralized grid infrastructure and the growing importance of distributed energy resources like solar + battery storage.
The aging electrical grid is increasingly susceptible to weather-related outages. Overhead power lines, aging transformers, and centralized generation create single points of failure that affect entire communities.
A solar energy system paired with battery storage provides backup power during grid outages. Modern systems like the Enphase IQ Battery automatically island your home — disconnecting from the downed grid and powering critical loads from stored solar energy.
Configure your backup system to prioritize essential circuits: refrigeration, medical equipment, communications, lighting, and sump pumps. Solar Mason designs backup systems tailored to each customer's critical load requirements.
