Solar Battery Storage Add on For Existing Solar Systems
Adding Solar Battery Storage
Enhance Your Older Solar System with Battery Storage
If your solar system was installed several years ago, it’s likely that it doesn’t include a battery storage solution. Adding solar battery storage is a cost-effective upgrade that brings significant advantages for both residential and commercial installations. By integrating battery storage, you can store excess energy for use during peak demand times or power outages, reduce reliance on the grid, and increase your overall energy savings. This upgrade enhances the efficiency and reliability of your existing solar system, making it a smart investment for the future.
I upgraded my system to >10kW with battery backup. The job also included removal of some older equipment, and integration with a PV array on another part of my property.
New England Clean Energy did a fantastic job from the initial feasibility through installation and power-on. I really value Mark Durrenberger’s deep knowledge and experience in this field; his recommendations and insights resulted in an optimum system that I would not have otherwise been able to design (and I’m an electrical engineer). The installation by Nick and his crew went quickly and smoothly, with no surprises. They were professional and took the time to explain the details.
Overall, I am very satisfied with New England Clean Energy, and I recommend them to anyone looking to install or upgrade a clean energy system.

Why Add Battery Storage to Your Solar System?
Solar battery storage systems allow you to store excess energy generated by your solar panels for use when you need it most—whether that’s during peak demand hours, at night, or during a power outage. This capability not only ensures you have a continuous power supply but also allows you to optimize your energy usage, leading to greater savings.
In Locations with Net Metering: Even with net metering, where you can send excess energy back to the grid in exchange for credits, adding a battery storage system can provide additional control and financial benefits. With NECE’s battery solutions, you can store your excess energy on-site and use it during peak hours when electricity rates are higher, maximizing your return on investment.
In Locations Without Net Metering: If your area doesn’t offer net metering, battery storage becomes essential. NECE can help you capture all the energy your solar panels produce, ensuring none of it goes to waste. This stored energy can then be used during times when your solar panels aren’t producing electricity, giving you true energy independence.
The Value of Battery Storage During Power Outages and Storms
One of the most compelling reasons to add battery storage to your solar system is the peace of mind it provides during power outages and severe weather events. In New England, where storms and unpredictable weather can lead to extended power outages, having a reliable backup power source is invaluable. With NECE’s battery storage solutions, you can keep your lights on, your appliances running, and your essential systems functioning, even when the grid is down.
Battery storage systems are designed to automatically kick in during an outage, transitioning your home or business to stored solar power. This ensures that you’re not left in the dark, and it can prevent costly disruptions, particularly for businesses. Additionally, during storms or grid failures, having a battery system in place can protect against voltage fluctuations and surges, which can damage sensitive electronics.
