Battery Backup

Keep the lights on with Enphase battery storage

Winter storms, wildfire-season shutoffs, and an aging grid make outages a fact of life in Oregon. A home battery keeps your essentials running and stores your own solar for when you need it.

Why power your home with a battery?

Create and store your own power

An Enphase or Generac Energy Storage System gives you backup that keeps your home running on the energy you already make from the sun.

Reliable backup power, 24/7

An Energy Storage System keeps your home powered around the clock, providing dependable backup that keeps the lights on through extended outages.

Seamless integration with solar

Designed to work hand-in-hand with your rooftop solar, the battery stores excess daytime energy for use when the sun isn't shining, day or night.

Extended storage capacity

A single battery supports most homes through multi-day outages, and you can combine multiple batteries for even greater capacity.

Rapid response to outages

Power restores to your backed-up circuits in under a second after a grid failure, so you may not even notice the grid is down.

Why a battery

Backup power that works automatically

When the grid goes down, an Enphase battery switches over in an instant. Load management keeps your most important circuits running longer, and you decide what stays on.

  • Power lights, fridge, internet, and key outlets
  • Automatic switchover, no manual setup during an outage
  • Expandable, add more capacity any time
  • 15-year battery warranty

Store your own daytime solar for the evening

Pair a battery with solar to use the energy you produce during the day after the sun goes down, reduce what you pull from the grid, and qualify for additional Oregon storage incentives.

  • Use your solar around the clock
  • Reduce reliance on the highest utility rates
  • Eligible for solar + storage incentive bonuses
  • Monitor charge and backup status in the Enphase app

Solar only or solar + battery?

What kind of system is right for you?

Both options lower your bill and your carbon footprint. Adding an Enphase battery layers on resilience: stored power you can use overnight and automatic backup during outages.
