RESIDENTIAL MICROGRIDS

Build the last energy system you'll ever need.

Whether you're starting with solar, adding battery storage, or building a complete Mycrogrid®, every design is built around one goal: putting your home — not the utility — in control.

Design My Mycrogrid® Explore your options

Choose the path that fits your home.

Whether you're building a complete Mycrogrid®, adding battery storage, or expanding an existing system, we'll help you choose the right path toward greater energy independence.

Microgrid Installations

A complete property energy system designed as one connected installation.

We plan solar generation, battery storage, electrical integration, controls, and Mycroguard™ visibility together so the equipment works as one owned energy system.

Best for adding storage for the first time

Battery Only Installations

New battery storage sized around backup needs, daily use, and the property electrical system.

We review essential loads, available equipment space, electrical service, and any existing solar before designing and installing a new battery system.

Battery Add-Ons

Expand storage capacity or add compatible equipment to an existing energy system.

We inspect the installed system first, confirm compatibility and code requirements, then design the right expansion without guessing at what the existing equipment can support.

Included in this path
  • Existing-system inspection
  • Compatibility review
  • Capacity expansion plan
  • Code and permit review
  • Installation and recommissioning

A service starts with a design, not a box.

We model the property, equipment, loads, and existing system before finalizing what belongs in the scope.

Three paths, one accountable team.

The project scope changes. The planning, installation, and commissioning discipline does not.

Every Mycrogrid® is engineered before it's installed.

Every project begins by understanding your property, your energy goals, and your electrical system. It ends with a fully commissioned Mycrogrid® that has been tested, explained, and prepared for years of monitored operation.

  1. Survey the property

    We evaluate your property's electrical infrastructure, roof layout, energy use, backup priorities, and any existing solar or battery equipment before a single recommendation is made.

  2. Engineer the system

    Your Design Consultant engineers the right combination of solar, battery storage, electrical integration, operating strategy, and future expansion based on your home's unique requirements.

  3. Install & integrate

    Our licensed team coordinates permitting, installation, electrical integration, and equipment commissioning according to the approved design.

  4. Commission & verify

    Every Mycrogrid® is commissioned as a complete energy system. We verify operating modes, backup performance, and controls before walking you through the finished installation.

Not sure where to start?

Bring us your property, your current energy system, and what you want it to do. We'll recommend the right path — whether that's a complete Mycrogrid®, battery storage, or expanding an existing system. Whether you need a complete Mycrogrid® or simply more battery capacity, we'll tell you honestly.

Every recommendation is confirmed through a property review and site visit before the design is finalized.
