Defining the Generac Energy Storage System
A Generac Energy Storage system is a sophisticated battery technology solution, prominently featuring the PWRcell system. This technology is designed to capture and store energy generated by solar panels or drawn from the grid during off-peak hours. The system uses a modular approach, allowing us to customize the storage capacity precisely to your home or business needs. It works in tandem with a smart inverter, which manages the flow of energy to prioritize savings, maximize solar self-consumption, and provide instant backup power.
Efficiency: Optimizing Your Solar Investment
The first layer of Generac’s intelligence is its focus on efficiency. Without storage, excess solar production is sent back to the grid, often at a lower credit rate than the rate you pay to buy it back later.
Demand Management (Peak Shaving): The system intelligently monitors grid rates. It automatically discharges stored power during high-cost peak hours. This process, known as peak shaving, minimizes your dependence on expensive utility power, resulting in substantial savings on your monthly bill.
Maximizing Self-Consumption: For off-grid or energy-independent living, Generac ensures you consume every possible watt generated by your solar PV array. We design systems that meet your energy demand entirely from your solar and storage reserves before ever relying on external sources.
Reliability: Seamless Power Transition
Reliability is the core benefit of Generac’s system, a feature they also bring from their industry-leading generator technology. The PWRcell ensures power continuity when the grid fails.
Instantaneous Backup: When an outage occurs, the transfer switch seamlessly disconnects your property from the grid. It then draws power instantly from the charged battery. This transition is typically fast enough to keep computers and critical systems running without interruption.
Scalable Power: The PWRcell is designed with modularity in mind. We can easily increase your storage capacity by adding more battery modules to your existing inverter system. This means your energy security can grow as your needs change.
Integration with Generators: Generac’s systems are uniquely designed for perfect integration with their automatic Generators. The battery handles short, frequent outages. The generator automatically starts only when the battery is low during prolonged blackouts. This minimizes generator run time and saves fuel.
Intelligence: Monitoring and Control
The intelligence of the system is what sets it apart. It uses advanced software to manage energy flow dynamically.
Remote Monitoring: The system provides comprehensive monitoring via a mobile app or web portal. You can view real-time production, consumption, and battery charge level from anywhere. This level of transparency puts you in complete control of your energy usage.
Smart Load Management: The system can prioritize power distribution. We can set it to ensure essential appliances (like refrigerators and well pumps) stay powered first during an outage, while non-essential items are paused.
Expertise and Authorization: Our Commitment
As an Authorized Dealer for Generac, our installations meet the highest standards. We are not just installers; we are certified experts in system integration.
