The cost to install solar panels and a battery is $16,200 to $37,700 after the 30% federal tax credit. Solar battery installation is cheapest and easiest when installing the battery at the same time as a solar panel or solar roof system to minimize labor and permitting costs.
Solar batteries let you keep your lights on even when your local power grid is down. However, battery storage typically costs between $7,000 and $18,000. If you live in an area with frequent power outages, a solar energy storage battery is worth considering. Other equipment also factors into the overall price:
On the high end, we talked to a solar customer in Hawaii who spent $100,000 going solar. Dion in Nevada said their 10-kW system cost about $20,000, which is about the national average price for a 7-kW system. What else affects solar installation costs?
The price of solar panels changes depending on where you live, but the average for installation is just under $29,000 or $2.75 per watt. On the high end, we talked to a solar customer in Hawaii who spent $100,000 going solar. Dion in Nevada said their 10-kW system cost about $20,000, which is about the national average price for a 7-kW system.
On average, homeowners with a complete solar system save $41,000 to $62,000 on total avoided energy costs over 25 years. It all depends on what your local utility charges for electricity, according to Robert Flores, a solar expert at The University of California, Irvine's Clean Energy Institute.
Two cabinets can connect to a single inverter for up to 36 kWh total backup power. Whole-house solar battery backup costs $20,000 to $32,000 installed, not including solar panels. The average home uses 28 to 30 kWh per day, requiring batteries with at least that total capacity or more to power the entire home for one day.
Energy storage for solar farms can be costly. Solar panels only work when the sun is shining. So, like solar-plus-storage options for homeowners, utility-scale and community solar farms require storage technology like batteries to collect and preserve the excess energy generated by solar panels. This can get expensive.
