When the grid goes down, your lights stay on.
Data centers are pulling record power from Maryland’s grid, and a strained grid means more outages and higher bills. Storms and aging lines make it worse. A home battery turns your solar into backup power you can rely on.
- Automatic. The moment the grid drops, your home switches to battery power. No generator, no fuel, no noise.
- Recharges from the sun. Solar refills the battery every day, so backup keeps going through a longer outage.
- Protects what matters. Refrigerator, medical equipment, internet, lights and more stay running.
- Smart about the grid. Stored power can also help you use less expensive-hour electricity.
New programs for qualifying homeowners are opening up, with deals we have never been able to offer before. Ask if you qualify.

Why homeowners are locking in their rate right now.
Maryland's power grid is being pushed harder than ever. A huge and growing driver is the flood of new data centers pulling power from the regional grid — and every megawatt they pull is a cost that gets passed straight to homeowners.
- PJM's grid capacity prices jumped more than 10x in a single auction cycle — and independent market monitors point to data center demand as the primary driver.
- Data centers caused an estimated 63% of the most recent PJM capacity price increase.
- Maryland's 1:1 net metering changes in 2027 — systems installed and active before the deadline are grandfathered under today's rules.
- Lock in your rate now and rising utility prices stop applying to you.
