SunPower SunVault
Energy storage is the future of home security. When the utility company enacts a rolling blackout, you can protect your essential appliances and stay powered while your neighbor’s go dark. Not only can you store energy, using it when you need it most, but you can also use the energy stored to combat rising utility prices. Combining solar with energy storage allows you to generate and store your own clean energy so that you can safely stay powered for less. So which energy storage system is right for you?
As a SunPower Master Dealer, we recommend SunPower SunVault energy storage system! This all-in-one solution is an easy choice when it comes to deciding which energy solution to go with. The team at SunPower is constantly producing the most innovative and forward-thinking solar technologies on the market, and their SunVault energy storage system speaks for itself.
So What is the SunPower SunVault?
The SunPower SunVault is an energy storage system designed to pair beautifully with a SunPower Solar array. The SunVault batteries are Lithium Ferrous Phosphate (LFP), which enables improved reliability, increased safety, and extended system life. The battery itself can be wall-mounted, helping to keep your home uncluttered. The intelligent design of SunPower SunVault leads to several benefits for homeowners, apart from unobtrusiveness.
Stay Powered During Blackouts
One of the greatest benefits of owning a SunPower SunVault energy storage system is the ability to reliably store energy when you need it most. During a rolling blackout or general grid power outage, you can trust your SunPower SunVault to kick in and power your critical loads. IE: major appliances, your refrigerator, and critical lights. Staying charged and protecting essential appliances is key to staying safe when you’re most vulnerable.
Combat Rising Utility Prices
Another terrific benefit of owning a SunPower SunVault energy storage system is the ability to combat rising utility prices. Many utility companies like SDGE, are enacting Time-of-Use rates, which means that electricity rates will be higher or lower during various times of the day. Utility companies do this to take advantage of when homeowners are expected to be using the most energy; charging more when homeowners are expected to be using the most and less when they’re expected to be using the least. SunPower SunVault storage systems can be programmed to kick in during on-peak utility usage times so that your home is no longer relying on energy from the grid, but rather solely from your energy storage.
Constantly Monitor your Energy Usage
Apps are designed to make our lives easier, and what is more helpful than knowing exactly how much energy you’re using and when? SunPower has a terrific app that allows you to do just that! Integrated with SunVault storage, the mySunPower app, allows users to track their energy consumption in real-time. By accessing the app on either your phone or desktop, you can easily track how much energy your SunPower SunVault system has stored, and customize storage settings on the fly. SunPower SunVault batteries are meant to protect your home and its energy consumption, while also keeping you in total control of every aspect of your energy system.
Gain Energy Independence
We’ve already hinted at this, but when you combine solar with energy storage you have the ability to gain energy independence from the utility company. Your solar panels power your home during the day and use the energy generated to also charge your battery. It’s possible to reach a point where you have generated more energy than what you’re consuming and that excess energy gets pumped back into the utility grid for a credit on your future electric bills. Combining solar with energy storage is an essential step in gaining energy independence and saving tremendous amounts on your electric bills.
