Benefits of Virtual Power Plants
Flexible financing options
Swell's zero-down financing options make it easy for you to avoid any upfront cost and lock in a low, fixed monthly payment.
Keep the lights on
During a power outage a battery will backup your essential services. When a battery is paired with solar the battery is recharged each day when the sun comes up, providing truly renewable power.
Rest easy
The assurance a home battery provides is immeasurable. During a power outage or emergency, know you have power for your essential services.
Save the planet
In the coming years, renewable energy and energy storage systems will replace the central power plants powered by fossil fuels that have polluted our communities for over a century. Be part of the energy solution that cleans the air and cools the planet.
Build a more resilient neighborhood
Installing a battery in your home provides balance and certainty to the bigger electric grid, resulting in fewer brownouts and blackouts in your community.
How does a home battery work?
A home battery acts like a barrier between your home and the power grid. It plugs right into your current electrical system to optimize daily energy use and to provide backup power during a grid outage. Watch this video for a quick explanation.
