South Florida's hurricane season and FPL grid reliability make solar battery storage one of the most valuable home upgrades available. A solar battery system stores excess solar production during the day and powers your home during grid outages — keeping your lights, refrigerator, and critical appliances running when FPL goes down. Palm Beach Solar matches you with vetted installers for Enphase IQ Battery, Tesla Powerwall, and other leading battery systems.

What Sets Us Apart
Hurricane & Outage Protection
Palm Beach County averages multiple significant storm events per year. A solar battery system keeps your critical loads running during grid outages — no generator fuel, no noise, no carbon monoxide risk.
Manufacturer-Certified Partners
Our licensed installation partners hold current manufacturer certifications, including Tesla Certified Installer status. Tesla requires installers to pass its Powerwall 3 exam with a score of 80% or higher before installing or commissioning Powerwall 3 systems, and SolarEdge maintains its own certified installer program for inverters. The certification belongs to the licensed partner performing the work.
Leading Battery Brands
We coordinate proposals using Tesla Powerwall, Enphase IQ Battery, and comparable systems. Your proposal will include equipment specs, usable capacity, power output, and warranty terms so you can compare systems on real numbers.
Add to Existing Solar
Already have solar? We can add battery storage to most existing solar systems. Compatibility depends on your current inverter and system design — we assess your existing system as part of the proposal process.
Self-Consumption Optimization
Battery storage allows you to store excess solar production and use it in the evening — reducing your reliance on FPL grid power and maximizing the value of your solar investment.
FPL Time-of-Use Optimization
As FPL moves toward time-of-use rate structures, battery storage becomes increasingly valuable — charge during low-rate periods, discharge during high-rate periods to reduce your bill.
Purchase Structures Compared
Storage can be purchased with cash, bundled into a prepaid lease, or financed alongside a new system or as a standalone addition. Because the federal residential tax credit ended after 2025, a prepaid structure that passes through commercial ITC savings may cost less in total than a financed purchase. Your advisor compares total cost, not just monthly payment.
How It Works
System Assessment
We assess your energy usage, existing solar system (if any), and critical load requirements to size the right battery system for your home.
Equipment Selection
Your installer recommends battery equipment sized for your needs — Enphase IQ, Tesla Powerwall, or alternatives — with full specs and warranty details.
Permit & Installation
Battery storage installations require electrical permits. Your installer handles all permitting and FPL interconnection updates.
Activation & Monitoring
Your battery system is activated and connected to your monitoring app. You can track charge levels, production, and consumption in real time.
Frequently Asked Questions
Both are AC-coupled lithium storage systems installed by certified partners. A Tesla Powerwall is a 13.5 kWh unit backed by Tesla's monitoring app and whole-home backup support. Enphase IQ 5P batteries are 5 kWh modular units that pair natively with Enphase microinverters and can be spread across a wall instead of stacked in one spot. Backed-up circuits, capacity, and warranty terms are configured per home, so compare a written quote for both before choosing.
