Why should I install a solar battery system?

A solar battery system stores excess electricity generated by your solar panels so you can use it later — at night, during peak rate hours, or when the grid goes down.

Homeowners in California and Florida often install solar batteries for greater energy independence, protection against outages, and better control over electricity costs.

Can I finance a solar battery system?

Yes. Eligible homeowners can finance qualifying home battery storage systems.

Is a solar battery worth the investment?

A solar battery system may be worth considering if you:

  • Live in an area with frequent outages
  • Have time-of-use electricity rates
  • Want backup power without a generator
  • Want to maximize the value of your solar panels
  • Prefer greater energy independence
Can I finance a whole-house generator?

Yes. Eligible homeowners can finance a permanently installed natural gas or propane generator, provided the system meets program and local guidelines.

What are the repayment terms for PACE financing when installing energy systems?

PACE offers long repayment terms, which can extend up to 30 years under California law and up to 20 years under Florida law. However, the specific repayment period is determined by factors like the project’s scope, the materials used, and the property’s location.

What does a whole-house generator cost?

Installed generator systems commonly range from a couple of thousand dollars to $20,000+, depending on capacity and installation complexity.

Is PACE financing based on my credit score?

Qualifying for PACE financing does not require a traditional minimum credit score, but eligibility is based on multiple factors and program rules, including, but not limited to, eligible collateral, available equity, and ability to repay. Start an eligibility check to see if you qualify.

How do I get started?

Start by checking eligibility, then request a contractor estimate for qualifying upgrades. Once your project scope is confirmed, you can proceed through the approval and installation steps.
