With SDGE's frequent public safety power shutoffs and rising rates, our battery systems keep La Mesa kitchens and Scripps Ranch home offices running smoothly. We specialize in compact lithium-ion units that fit neatly in garage corners or exterior utility spaces common in San Diego homes.
For coastal properties, we install marine-rated battery enclosures with humidity control. Inland clients receive thermal management systems to prevent overheating in Ramona or Alpine summers. All configurations include automatic transition switches that react faster than SDGE's 15-minute outage alerts.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long will batteries last during an outage?
A typical 10kWh system powers refrigerators and lights for 18-24 hours in a 1,500 sq ft home - crucial for extended outages like the 2020 East County fires.
Are batteries worth it with SDGE's new rate plans?
Our clients in Tierrasanta and Mira Mesa save $400+ annually by storing solar energy for 4-9pm peak periods when rates climb to $0.80/kWh.
