Battery Storage Incentives

Energy Monitoring With Lumin
SunFarm Energy offers energy monitoring with Lumin to help you take control of your consumption. Monitoring your overall consumption is an important step when you install a battery storage system and can help maximize battery life in an outage.
Lumin provides real time consumption data, automated control of breakers, and load shedding options to help you get the most out of your solar + storage system.
How Does a Battery Storage System Work?
At their most basic, storage systems work by storing excess energy from your solar array for use at a later time.
In most cases, solar PV systems produce more energy than your household or business can use. Any energy that isn’t used is sent back to the grid. However, by adding a battery back-up system, instead of sending that energy to the grid, you can store it for use at night or during an outage.
At SunFarm Energy, we like to think about battery storage like a generator, but without the noise and dependence on fossil fuels. With battery storage, you can reduce your reliance on the grid and see even more savings on your next power bill, all while ensuring protection during an outage or storm. Learn more about how battery storage works.
