Installing solar panels is a powerful first step toward energy freedom. But if you really want to take control of your energy — day and night — there’s one upgrade that can make all the difference: battery storage.
At Mirasol Solar, we help Florida homeowners add battery systems that store solar power, provide backup during outages, and optimize energy savings around the clock.
Here’s why battery storage is worth it in 2025:
1. Store Excess Solar Power for Later Use
Your system sends any unused solar energy it produces during the day back to the grid without a battery. With a battery like the Tesla Powerwall or FranklinWH, you can:
-
Store that energy on-site
-
Use it at night when your panels aren’t producing
-
Avoid buying electricity from the grid during expensive peak hours
This means greater energy independence and better control over your utility bill.
2. Stay Powered During Grid Outages
From hurricanes to unexpected blackouts, Florida homes can experience grid interruptions. A solar battery ensures:
-
Your lights stay on
-
Your fridge keeps running
-
Your home remains safe and comfortable
Even a single battery can power essential appliances for hours or days, depending on your energy needs.
3. Maximize Savings with Time-of-Use Rates
More Florida utilities are shifting toward time-of-use (TOU) pricing, where electricity is pricier at certain times of day.
With battery storage:
-
You can charge your battery with free solar power during the day
-
Then discharge it during peak hours, when grid power is most expensive
-
Lowering your monthly bills even further
4. Smart Monitoring = Smarter Energy Habits
Today’s battery systems come with intelligent monitoring apps that let you:
-
Track energy production and usage in real-time
-
Customize when and how your battery discharges
-
Receive alerts and performance data
With Mirasol Solar, you stay in control and always know how your system is performing.
5. It’s Eligible for the 30% Federal Tax Credit
Great news: in 2025, battery storage systems will qualify for the same 30% federal tax credit as solar panels—as long as they are charged by solar.
Mirasol Solar will guide you through:
-
Choosing the right battery size
-
Applying for incentives
-
Seamless integration with your existing or new solar system
