Solar Storage
BATTERY STORAGE & DEMAND MANAGEMENT
Solar generates power. Storage controls when it creates value.
Capstone designs and deploys commercial battery systems from 50 kWh to 2 MWh for industrial, commercial, and portfolio-level operators.
Commercial battery storage transforms energy from a utility expense into a managed asset.
Three ways batteries create value for commercial assets.
Modern commercial storage systems are designed to reduce utility costs, improve solar performance, and protect operations during grid disruptions.
- 01
Demand-Charge Reduction
For many commercial facilities, demand charges represent a significant portion of the monthly utility bill.
Lower monthly utility expenses reducing operational output.
- 02
NEM 3.0 Export Optimization
Under modern utility structures, exported solar energy often carries less value than energy consumed on-site.
Improved solar ROI and greater energy value retention.
- 03
Operational Resilience
Battery systems provide backup capacity that helps maintain critical functions during outages and utility disturbances.
Improved solar ROI and greater energy value retention.
The highest utility bill is often created by a few minutes each month.
Many commercial utilities calculate demand charges based on a facility’s highest energy usage period.

What owners ask before signing.
Do commercial batteries provide backup power?
Yes. Battery systems can support critical loads during utility outages, depending on system design and facility requirements.
What is demand-charge reduction?
We work with leading roofing manufacturers and offer warranty options that can cover both materials and workmanship, depending on the system selected for your project.
How does battery storage improve solar performance?
Most commercial roofing projects are completed within two to six weeks, though timelines can vary based on building size, weather conditions, and project complexity.
How large should a commercial battery system be?
Yes, our team manages the entire permitting process and coordinates all required inspections to ensure your project remains compliant with local regulations.
Can battery storage qualify for incentives without solar?
Yes, our team manages the entire permitting process and coordinates all required inspections to ensure your project remains compliant with local regulations.
