VALUE
Upfront incentive of $350/kWh of nameplate usable capacity.
That’s $10,000 off a 39.2 kWh
Avalon battery system!
We optimize the amount of energy your battery discharges to ensure the greatest possible revenue while keeping enough in reserve to reduce your energy bill and provide backup.
Participation incentive of $0.10/kWh
based on battery performance.
That’s over $2,100 additional revenue in
year one with a Fortress Power
39.2 kWh Avalon battery system.
HOW IT WORKS
- Solar panels charge your battery during the day.
- SDCP pays you $0.10/kWh for using your battery during peak times instead of going to the grid.
- SDCP will send you quarterly checks based on your energy usage.
- Fortress Power schedules your battery to discharge excess power for you during peak times, allowing you to maximize your energy savings.
- Fortress Power will not dispatch your battery during a weather event.
