Residential Solar + Storage
Atlasta Solar Center provides homeowners with solar + storage solutions for battery backup power during grid outages, for self consumption, or for time of use billing. Time of use billing is where the cost of power changes depending on the time of day. These rates are typically on-peak and off-peak. Off-peak kilowatt hours are used or produced during the day and on-peak kilowatt hours are typically billed at a higher rate in the mornings or evenings. Where batteries come in is you charge the batteries with the cheap electricity from your solar during the day and use the power when the cost of electricity goes up. This is called “rate arbitrage” and will greatly increase the payback of your solar system when your utility changes to time of use rates.

How It Works
1. Photovoltaic (PV) panels collect the sun’s energy (DC) and transport it to the microinverters to become (AC) for use in residences.
2. The inverters transform the energy from direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC) power for your residential use.
3. AC power is delivered to the building’s electrical box. Power is either used by the building or sent through the net meter to the utility grid.
4. The difference between the electricity generated by your solar system and what you consume is the amount for which you are charged or credited on your bill. This is called Net-Metering

How Solar + Battery Storage Works
1. Photovoltaic (PV) panels collect the sun’s energy (DC) and transport it to the microinverters to become (AC) for use in residences.
2. The inverters transform the energy from direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC) power for your residential use.
3. AC power is delivered to the building’s electrical box. Power is either used by the building, used to top off your batteries, or sent through the net meter to the utility grid.
4. If the grid goes down, your lights wont even flicker. We use Enphase storage products which provide a seamless transition to your battery when the grid goes down.
5. When the grid connection is re-established, your transfer switch automatically transfers your power back on grid so you can produce more solar credit on your net meter account.
6. All of this happens automatically, seamlessly, and without any hassle or worry from you.

REAP Grants
The USDA Renewable Energy for America (REAP) grant is a solar grant that covers 50% of the total project cost (equipment, installation labor, permitting and engineering, etc.), for eligible businesses.
And as the recently passed Inflation Reduction Act resulted in additional funding for the USDA Renewable Energy for America (REAP) grant program, there are several other advantages of this grant:
- The USDA REAP grant increased from 25% to 50% of total project cost.
- The Federal Tax Credit was increased from 22% to 30%.
- There’s an additional + 10% Energy Community Tax Credit within specific areas.
- And finally, an additional + 10% Domestic Content Bonus for material we’re using in your solar installation.
For the first time ever, it’s completely possible for you to have a four-year or less pay-off of a new solar system.
