Did you know that using electricity during peak times can cost a lot more than during off-peak hours? The challenge is that most people are at work or school during the prime off-peak times, which makes it tough to take advantage of lower prices. We’ve just spotted a new solution, Haven’s home battery energy storage system.
The Haven home battery lets you store energy during off-peak hours so that you can tap it later when prices are higher, meaning you control when you draw power. It also works as a backup power source in case of an emergency or power outage. It’s not a long-term solution, but it can power essential appliances like your fridge, lights, and heating/cooling systems for up to 36 hours. Once the power comes back on, your home battery will switch back to using the grid to power your home. It’s like having a backup generator for your home!
If you’re worried about setting up and managing the battery, don’t be! Haven provides support for configuring the app that helps monitor and control the battery, and they’ll send a certified electrician to install it for you. You can use the app to redirect or turn on the battery’s power at any time and update your essential appliances as your needs change.
Haven is expanding their operations to Southern California thanks to a recent $4.2 million seed funding round, and we hope to see solutions like theirs expand quickly. Here’s an FAQ if you want to know more.
