Backup power for Hillsboro homeowners

In Hillsboro, a battery backup system takes over the moment the grid drops, so your essential circuits stay powered without you touching anything. It is a compact, wall-mounted unit that holds a charge for the next outage. Our licensed electricians install it, tie it into your panel, and pull the permit.

The essentials people choose

  • Work from home: internet and computers keep going.
  • Lighting and security: lights, alarms, and select heating or cooling.
  • Medical equipment: CPAP machines and oxygen concentrators.
  • Food storage: fridge and freezer keep running.

We decide the protected circuits together, based on the battery size and your panel, at the free consultation.

Enphase, Sigenergy, or FranklinWH battery

The choice for Hillsboro comes down to your home, your goals, and any solar you already have, and we install Enphase, Sigenergy, and FranklinWH batteries.

Enphase

If you want to start small and add later, the modular Enphase battery, which uses LFP chemistry, is built for that. The Enphase app gives you a live view of production, storage, and use.

Sigenergy and FranklinWH

These two are a good fit when a Hillsboro home already has solar, because they can be added without swapping the system out. Each can also accept a 240 volt portable generator as a backup input.

Some homes pair both, and some pick one. Our whole-house generator page explains the other path.

Solar optional

If you live in Hillsboro, solar is not required. The battery can charge from the grid or from solar, and we configure it for whichever you have.

A battery on a solar home stores what the panels make and gives it back at night.

We also service solar systems we did not install, including orphaned ones. Start with our solar service page.

From quote to backup power in Hillsboro

In Hillsboro, a battery install runs in four steps: consultation and design, permitting, installation, then activation and a walkthrough.

  1. Consultation and design: we review your panel, your solar if you have it, and your backup goals.
  2. Permitting and paperwork: the permit and the paperwork are ours to file; we also look for incentives that apply.
  3. Installation: in-house electricians do the wiring and mounting.
  4. Activation and support: we power it up, check it, and support you after.

A permit is required in Oregon, and we pull it for you.
