With unpredictable weather becoming increasingly more common and Colorado’s electric grid getting less reliable, solar battery backup is more important than ever for solar owners along the Front Range. Solar batteries give you access to more electricity from your solar energy system and offer the chance to take control of your power supply.
While there are a wide variety of solar batteries available on the market today, Tesla Powerwall is consistently rated one of the best. At Solar Power Pros, we only install high-quality and top-performing solar products, and we recommend Tesla Powerwall systems.

Solar batteries store the excess electricity your solar panels generate, allowing you to use renewable energy 24 hours a day. There are times, like at night or on cloudy days, when solar panels can’t produce enough electricity to power your home. However, with battery backup, you’ll have access to electricity that your solar panels generated when the sun was shining that may have been wasted otherwise. Solar batteries can also help keep your power on during an outage, which can be crucial to your family’s comfort and safety.
Tesla Powerwall is a highly advanced solar energy storage system that can seamlessly integrate with nearly any solar array. Pairing Tesla’s seek design with a 13.5 kWh lithium-ion battery pack makes it a high-performing addition to your solar energy system. Tesla Powerwall comes with a wide range of high-tech features as well, including:
Installing a Tesla Powerwall solar battery is an investment, but at Solar Power Pros, we think Powerwall is worth the cost. These state-of-the-art battery systems come with several benefits that allow you to get the most out of your solar energy production.
Tesla Powerwall will automatically charge when your solar panels are producing electricity, giving you a bank of stored solar energy you can tap into at any time. You’ll have access to all of your battery’s storage data through the easy-to-use Tesla app so you can keep track of your system and optimize its performance.
If your home’s solar system is connected to the grid, it will automatically shut off during a power outage for the safety of emergency workers. The Tesla Powerwall will automatically detect an outage, making it easy for you to switch from grid-sourced power to your battery backup in seconds.
While most solar battery systems have a capacity of 10 kWh, the Tesla Powerwall comes with 13.5 kWh. This means that you’ll have more storage capabilities and could even mean fewer batteries to supply your entire home with reliable power. Since the Tesla Powerwall is stackable up to 10 units, you can easily expand your system to meet your storage needs.
Battery backup systems, including the Tesla Powerwall, are eligible for solar incentives! You can lower the upfront cost of your Tesla Powerwall installation by 30% with the federal solar tax credit and may even qualify for rebates from your local utility company. Solar Power Pros can help you learn more about the local utility rebates available to you during your free consultation.
