Take Control of Your Energy
Solar Battery Storage & True Power Independence
Power outages, rising utility rates, and an increasingly strained electric grid have many homeowners looking for greater energy security. Solar battery storage gives you the ability to store excess solar energy, keep critical systems running during outages, and gain more control over how and when you use electricity.
At Tiger Solar, we design battery storage systems that fit your home, your energy goals, and your budget—whether you’re looking for essential backup power or whole-home energy independence.
Why Add Battery Storage to Your Solar System?
A solar battery stores unused energy generated by your solar panels so it can be used later when you need it most.
With battery storage, you can:
Keep important appliances running during grid outages
Reduce reliance on your utility company
Store excess solar production for nighttime use
Protect yourself from rising electricity rates
Gain greater control over your home’s energy usage
Increase resilience during severe weather and power disruptions
Instead of sending all excess solar energy back to the grid, your battery allows you to keep more of the power you generate.
Battery Storage:
More Than Backup Power
Battery storage functions like a home generator that works for you every day—not just when the power goes out. Throughout the day, it captures excess solar production that would otherwise be sent back to the grid and stores that energy for later use.
At night, your home can draw from the battery instead of relying on the grid. This allows you to maximize the value of the energy your solar system produces, improve your energy independence, and make greater use of the system you’ve already invested in.
It’s more than backup power—it’s a smarter, more sustainable way to use your solar production from morning to night.

Customized Energy Storage Solutions For Our Customers
My wife and I plan on being in our house for a long time and solar panels will pay for themselves in under 10 years. The battery system provides us with a backup power source in case of emergencies. Working with Tiger Solar was great! I did a lot of research on my own and wanted to have my whole house backed up without spending a fortune.”Michigan Homeowner
What Can a Solar Battery Power During an Outage?
One of the biggest misconceptions homeowners have is that a single battery can power an entire home indefinitely like a large gas generator.
The reality is that battery storage systems are customized based on your energy needs and backup goals.
Essential Backup Power
A single battery is often designed to support the most important systems in your home during an outage, including:
- Refrigerator and freezer
- Wi-Fi router and internet equipment
- Medical devices
- Lighting circuits
- Security systems
- Garage door openers
- Select outlets for charging phones and electronics
For many homeowners, this level of backup provides peace of mind while maximizing value and affordability.
Whole-Home Backup Power
For homeowners seeking greater energy independence, multiple batteries can be installed together to support larger electrical loads and longer backup durations.
A whole-home backup system may power:
- Central air conditioning
- Heat pumps
- Electric water heaters
- Well pumps
- Large appliances
- Multiple circuits throughout the home
Because every home is different, Tiger Solar performs a detailed energy analysis to determine how many batteries are needed to meet your desired backup goals.
Battery Storage for Existing Solar Systems
