Energy Resilience : A Solar Plus Battery System
Kansas Solar Systems are helping businesses in Kansas gain greater energy resilience through solar plus battery storage solutions. The benefits of reliable a commercial battery storage back up power source are numerous.
Critical Infrastructure
Plan ahead, be power outage ready, backup your critical infrastructure using batteries.
Continuity of Service
Gain continuity of service for your customers and community during a power outage.
Lessen Peak Grid Demand
Your batteries can store excess solar energy and utilize it during energy intensive periods.
Stored Solar Energy
Use battery stored energy during non production hours to lessen your reliance on the grid.
No Net Metering, No Probem
If your utility doesn’t offer net metering, store your excess solar energy and use it to supplement your grid drawn power.
Did you know that you can use your solar, standby generator and our Enphase IQ 10 Batteries as a complete system that offers a unique form of backup?
Maximize Your Solar + Battery Solution
Understand Your Energy Usage
Evaluate Your Equipment and Time of Day Usage
It’s incredibly important that you understand how your utility provider
breaks down your electricity charges. A detailed breakdown of your energy
bill will allow you to evaluate your business energy usage and identify
opportunities to reduce your utility bill. This information, your experience of
how your energy usage changes throughout the year and your future
energy plans are critical for sizing your solar array.
By installing correctly sized energy efficient equipment within your
business and balancing (where operationally possible) your most energy
intense activities to lower energy load times, you may be able to reduce
spikes in demand and better balance your daily energy consumption.

Preferred Technology
We like to work with modular, scalable battery solutions which meet the needs of on grid commercial storage and also demanding off grid commercial storage solutions. It is important that we use chemical safe batteries with long warranties and that all of our battery solutions come with an energy usage insight app.
Our Designers and NABCEPs work with market leading, established solar technology companies such as Enphase, BluePlanet and other component companies who offer some of the industries longest warranties and are continually developing their technology.
Our innovative commercial projects meet the individual challenges, budget, use and anticipated energy needs of your business. Our NABCEP PVIP Team utilize their vast knowledge and experience to source the most appropriate components for your project.
Proactive Monitoring
We proactively monitor each of our solar arrays to make certain they are running at an optimized level and without issue.
The video to the right shows the self monitoring view via desktop detailing production data, site usage and grid consumption and is based on an Enphase Battery System.
This information is also available in app and web based formats.
Tax Credits & Incentives
There are significant tax related incentives and tax credits available for taking your business solar. We’d be happy to take you through your options.
Two tax credits are available to businesses, local and tribal governments and nonprofits however in general a project owner can only claim one of the tax credits for each property. There are exceptions to this point and the Solar Energy Technologies Office guide Federal Solar Tax Credits for Businesses offers greater insight on this point.
The investment tax credit (ITC) reduces your federal income tax liability for a percentage of the cost of your solar installation within the tax year. And the production tax credit (PTC) is a kilowatt-hour tax credit for all electricity generated by solar and any other qualifying technology within the first 10 years of your systems operation. Much like the ITC it reduces your federal income tax liability however is adjusted annually for inflation.
For agricultural producers and rural small businesses Rural Energy for America Program, or REAP, grants are available to make energy efficiency improvements as well as for renewable energy solutions. Further information about REAP grants can be found at USDA.
Scheduling a complementary consultation is a great first step to exploring different solar solutions for your business. Feel free to ask us a question or schedule a complimentary consultation over the phone, online or in person.
We welcome the opportunity to visit with you and talk further about your solar and energy needs and the incentives available.
Our consultations and sales are led by a NABCEP Associate.
