Unlocking Solar Potential: The Role of Battery Storage and NES in California

As the central California solar landscape evolves, so does the industry. Solar and battery storage are becoming the new norm due to changes in energy production and management. Utility companies now pay ratepayers less, leading to the use of batteries to store generated electricity for nighttime use.

The shift benefits homeowners and the grid by reducing reliance on grid storage and compensation for energy supplied. A new development in the industry is the introduction of Non-Export Systems (NES), allowing easier solar system additions while maintaining grandfathered rates.

Adding solar to offset more usage is now more economical with NES, enabling homeowners to manage energy production and storage efficiently.
