About the Generac Power Cell System
Generac is a leading American manufacturer of backup power products. The company produces everything from gas-powered generators to solar battery systems. Generac is known for quality, reliability, and ease of use of its power systems.
For home solar, the Generac Power Cell is one of the most popular products available today. Marketed as “PWRcell”, the system can provide backup power as well as versatile options for power distribution while solar panels are offline.
With most solar systems, in the event of a grid outage, the home will go dark. When you add a battery backup system to solar power on Long Island, the system can be configured to automatically switch over when the grid is down. This ensures redundant electricity, just like with a traditional generator.
Going beyond that, battery backup for solar power on Long Island can also intelligently distribute power when rates are at their highest, such as in the evenings when solar panels go offline. This means that you can use stored solar energy even when the sun has gone down. There are also other use cases, such as using a solar battery to charge an electric vehicle using electricity that was generated by solar panels.
Adding a system like the Generac PWRcell will increase the overall cost of the installation, but the return on investment over time can offset this. It’s important to get the right balance. The team at Long Island Power Solutions can properly size the right system for your home, based on your unique needs and your historical energy usage patterns.
Generac is just one of the options for battery backup and is typically best for custom systems that sit outside of the average use case. We also offer standardized integrated systems, like Tesla Solar with a Battery Wall.
