When the grid goes down in New Hampshire, most solar systems shut off automatically. It is a code requirement to protect utility workers, which means you can have panels on your roof and still sit in the dark.
A solar battery backup changes that equation. It stores the energy your panels produce and keeps your home running through an outage automatically, with no action required on your end. SRsolarNH installs solar battery storage across NH and provides an honest assessment of what makes sense for your specific home.
SRsolarNH installs a range of proven solar battery storage systems. Every recommendation is based on your home’s specific load requirements, your existing setup, and your goals.
The right solar battery depends on your system size, how much coverage you need, and whether you are looking for partial-load or whole-home backup.

Tell us about your property and your goals. We will design a solar battery system around what your home actually needs, with no guesswork and no pressure.
Understanding how solar panel battery storage works helps you make a better decision before you commit. Here is the full picture, from the moment your panels produce energy to the moment an outage hits.
Without a battery, a solar system produces zero usable power during a grid outage. Pairing solar with storage is what makes the system genuinely resilient, not just efficient.
The answer depends on how many batteries you install and which loads you designate as critical. When we design a solar storage battery system for a New Hampshire home, most homeowners prioritize the following:
Priority
Load
Why It Matters
High
Well pump
No power means no water on most NH properties
High
Refrigerator and freezer
Multi-day outages mean real food loss and real cost
High
Heating system controls
Gas furnaces and heat pumps all require electricity to operate
High
Medical equipment
CPAP, oxygen, anything that cannot wait for the grid to come back
Medium
Lights and outlets
Basic habitability during extended outages
Medium
Wi-Fi and phone charging
Small draw, high value when managing an emergency

Whole-home coverage is achievable with larger systems. We size every system around what you actually need covered, not around what looks impressive on a proposal.
Not all battery systems are the same size, and not all backup setups cover the whole home. Before you install anything, you need a clear picture of:
We model this out for your specific home. There’s no guessing involved.
This is what makes solar panel battery storage in NH fundamentally different from a generator. A generator runs until it runs out of fuel.
A solar-charged battery keeps replenishing throughout the day as long as your panels are producing, which means a well-designed system can provide continuous power through multi-day outages without any fuel management on your end.
A battery that is integrated incorrectly with your solar system or your electrical panel creates problems that are difficult and expensive to correct.
Every SRsolarNH installation is completed by our own crew, with a 25-year warranty behind the work and no subcontractors involved at any point in the process.

And the surrounding areas.
In most cases, yes. Solar battery storage systems are designed to work alongside a solar array, using the energy your panels produce to keep the battery charged. If you do not have panels yet, SRsolarNH can design a complete system that includes both.
That depends on how many batteries you install and which loads are connected to the backup circuit. A system designed around critical loads will last significantly longer than one carrying the whole house.
What makes solar battery backup particularly effective is that your panels continue recharging the battery during daylight hours, which can extend coverage through multi-day outages. We model this out for your specific home during the design process so you know exactly what to expect.
Yes. SRsolarNH installs battery storage for solar systems that were not originally built with backup in mind. We evaluate your existing equipment and electrical panel to determine the best integration approach. This applies whether or not SRsolarNH completed the original installation.
SRsolarNH designs every system from scratch around the specific land, roof, usage, and goals in front of us. We are EnergySage Installer of the Year 2025 and 2026, and Union Leader Readers’ Choice Award 2024 and 2025. If you are ready to make the switch, reach out!
