If you already own solar in Texas, this guide helps you understand your options and make informed decisions.

Is adding a battery to your solar worth the cost?

We hear this question constantly from Texas solar owners. The industry doesn't always make things clear, so let's break it down. If you're in TNMP (Texas-New Mexico Power) territory, your interconnection timeline is typically 2-4 weeks.

Battery Storage for Your Existing Solar

Adding a battery to your existing solar system is one of the smartest upgrades you can make in Texas. With grid reliability uncertain and rates climbing, battery backup provides both security and potential income through grid services programs. Most existing solar systems can add battery storage. Tesla Powerwall, Enphase IQ Battery, and LG Chem are popular options. Your best choice depends on your inverter type and goals.
