At this point I'm more leaning to a battery system and doing solar later.
Then the question comes to what battery system and any other items with it. Our current contract includes the
Span panel so we can shed loads as demand dictates. That tied with a battery system would serve to ensure our cold food storage, essentials and such are able to sustain for longer than average.
We don't have outages that frequently where I live so I don't really need off grid like I originally planned. I just like the plan for energy independence.
For the batteries, I'm sure the company we chose uses Tesla because it is Tesla. I'm learning about so many different manufacturers out there with different products that produce the same end result but less polish and branding. The challenge with something like this is that most installers won't provide support for them at all meaning we would be on our own and I'm not that good of an electrician.
