UNDERSTANDING BATTERY STORAGE
What Is a Home Battery Installation
A battery stores the extra energy your solar panels make during the day. You draw on it in the evening or when a storm knocks out the grid.
It connects to your main electrical panel and refills on its own. If an outage hits, it takes over automatically within moments.

CLEANER ENERGY ALONG THE SOUND
What Home Batteries Mean for Milford and the Connecticut Shoreline
Storms on Long Island Sound have shown how fragile the grid can be. A neighborhood with batteries rides out those events with fewer disruptions.
In Connecticut’s program, batteries help the utility during peak summer and winter events, which can reduce the need for the most polluting plants.
With solar, you also use more of your own clean energy after dark, so less of your evening electricity comes from fossil fuels. Multiplied across the town, the effect is noticeable.

COMMON QUESTIONS
What Milford Homeowners Ask About Home Batteries
Here are honest answers to the questions that come up most.
Do I need solar to add a battery?
No. A battery can store grid energy and serve as backup. Pairing it with solar gives you more savings and longer resilience, and we’ll show you both setups.
Which brands can you install?
We recommend whichever system best fits your home and budget, not a house brand. We’ll explain our reasoning before you decide.
How long can a battery run my house?
That depends on the loads you connect and the battery capacity. A single unit generally carries essentials for many hours, and more units extend that time.
What is the installation timeline?
Adding a battery to an existing solar array is commonly done in one day. A new solar and battery system takes longer. We confirm your timeline in advance.
What incentives apply in Connecticut?
Connecticut’s Energy Storage Solutions program, open to UI and Eversource customers, offers a $30 per kWh enrollment incentive plus $300 to $550 per kW-year for 10 years, for participation starting April 1, 2026. The federal homeowner credit ended for systems placed in service after Dec 31, 2025.
