In Downey, CADowney homes on SCE time-of-use rates pay the most in the late afternoon and evening. A battery lets you use your own stored solar power during those hours. We check how adding storage affects your current SCE plan before you decide.
Solar and storage, day and night.
Tap each mode to see where your energy goes during the day, in the evening, and during an outage.
Your panels power your home first, charge your battery, and send extra energy to the grid, which can earn bill credits under your utility’s rules.
After sunset, your battery powers your home through the evening, when utility rates are often highest. The grid fills any gap.
Solar panels alone shut off during a grid outage for safety. A battery set up for backup keeps your essentials, or your whole home, running.
