Quick Answer: Home Battery Storage in NJ & PA

A home battery stores the extra electricity your solar panels produce during the day so you can use it at night or during a power outage. When the grid goes down, a battery with backup capability keeps your essential circuits running automatically — no generator, no fuel, no noise. Pure Home Renewables designs and installs battery storage for homes across New Jersey and Pennsylvania, sized to your actual usage. Most home batteries store 10-15 kWh, enough to run essentials like your refrigerator, lights, Wi-Fi, and phone charging through the night. Batteries can be added to a new solar installation or, in many cases, to a system you already have.

Power You Can Count On, Even When the Grid Can't Keep Up

South Jersey and the Philadelphia suburbs see their share of nor'easters, summer thunderstorms, and aging-grid outages. When the power goes out, most homes go dark. A home with battery storage doesn't. The battery detects the outage and switches your essential circuits over automatically — so fast that most families only find out the neighborhood lost power when they look out the window.

Battery storage also changes how your solar panels work for you. Without a battery, the extra energy your panels produce at midday flows back to the grid, and you draw grid power again at night. With a battery, that midday energy stays home — stored in your garage or basement and used after sunset. You keep more of what your roof produces.

Pure Home Renewables installs battery storage as part of new solar projects and as an add-on to qualifying existing systems. Because we're a full-service solar and roofing contractor, one team handles the site assessment, electrical work, permits, utility coordination, and activation. We size every battery to your real usage — pulled from your actual electric bills, not a guess — and we'll tell you honestly if a battery doesn't make sense for your situation yet.

How Your Battery Project Works
A clear, six-step process from energy assessment to switch-on
1 Home energy assessment for battery storage

Free Energy Assessment

We review your electric bills and how your household actually uses power — when you're home, what runs at night, what you'd want powered in an outage. If you have solar already, we review your system's production too. You get straight answers, not a sales pitch.

2 Battery system design and electrical plans

Battery Sizing & Design

We size the battery to your goals — whole-home backup, essentials-only backup, or maximizing self-powered hours — and design where it mounts, how it ties into your electrical panel, and which circuits it protects.

3 Reviewing a battery storage proposal with a homeowner

Clear Proposal

You see exactly what's included: equipment, backup configuration, warranty terms, and timeline. We walk you through the options and answer every question before you decide anything.

4 Managing battery permits and utility paperwork

Permits & Utility Approval

We handle the paperwork — local electrical permits and utility interconnection approval. You don't chase anyone; we keep you posted at every step.

5 Licensed installer completing a home battery installation

Professional Installation

Our licensed installers mount the battery, wire the backup circuits, and integrate it with your solar system and electrical panel. Most installations are completed in a single day, and we leave your home as clean as we found it.

6 Final battery walkthrough and monitoring app setup

Activation & App Setup

We commission the system, test the backup switchover with you watching, and set up the monitoring app on your phone so you can see your battery charging, powering your home, and standing guard.

Battery Storage FAQ
Answers to the questions homeowners ask most about home batteries
Not by themselves. For safety reasons, standard solar systems shut down during a grid outage so they don't send power onto lines that utility workers are repairing. A battery with backup capability changes that: it isolates your home from the grid in a fraction of a second and keeps your protected circuits running on stored solar power. If outage protection is your main goal, a battery is what actually delivers it.
It depends on the battery size and what you're running. A typical 10-15 kWh home battery can run essentials — refrigerator, lights, Wi-Fi, phone chargers, and a few outlets — through a full night. If your solar panels are producing during the day, they recharge the battery, which can keep essentials running through multi-day outages. Whole-home backup including central air conditioning requires more capacity, and we'll size that honestly with you during the assessment.
In many cases, yes. Most modern solar systems can be retrofitted with battery storage, though the right approach depends on your inverter and how your system was installed. During the free assessment we'll evaluate your existing equipment and tell you exactly what adding a battery would involve — even if we didn't install your original system.
Day-to-day, no. Modern lithium home batteries have no moving parts, need no fuel, and manage themselves automatically. You monitor everything from an app, and the system alerts you if anything ever needs attention. That's a major difference from gas generators, which need fuel storage, oil changes, and regular test runs.
Most quality home batteries are warrantied for 10 years and are designed to keep a healthy share of their capacity through that period. Like a phone battery, capacity declines gradually with use — the warranty guarantees a minimum. We register every manufacturer warranty for you and go over the exact terms of your equipment before you commit.
Most batteries mount on a garage or basement wall, or outside on an exterior wall, in a footprint about the size of a large flat-screen TV. Modern home batteries carry rigorous safety certifications, and every installation we do is permitted, inspected, and performed by licensed professionals to current electrical code.
