How Presidio’s battery savings plan works

Intake

We collect your current power consumption data and monthly bills with our engineering team to determine the best plan for you.

Planning

We’ll file all the permits for you including building and fire. We design the system for you with no action needed on your part.

Installation

Our installation takes just a few hours to complete with minimal interruption to your business.

Save

Our battery automatically charges during off peak hours and discharges during peak hours, saving you thousands. We handle all the maintenance and operations.

Frequently asked questions

  • If your business electricity bill ever exceeds $3,000 a month we encourage you to reach out or fill out our inquiry form. There is no minimum size for our battery savings plan but we find that the larger the electricity cost, the larger savings percentage we can provide.

  • We’ll automatically handle the permits, installation, operations, and maintenance of our battery system. You can sit back and enjoy the savings.

  • You only pay us if our battery saves you money.

    Each month, after you get your utility bill, we look at how the battery was used:

    • When the battery sent power to your building (discharging)

    • When the battery took power from the grid (charging)

    We calculate savings like this:

    1. We calculate how much that battery discharge power would have cost under your old utility rate plan.

    2. That amount is your gross savings.

    3. We subtract what it actually cost to charge the battery.

    4. What’s left is your net savings.

    Your monthly bill is a percentage of that net savings.
    If there are no savings, there is no charge.

  • Free customers can expect to save between 15-20% on their electricity bills depending on consumption patterns.

  • Most battery systems are installed outside using a cabinet enclosure to be space efficient for your business.

  • Our battery systems are UL certified, fire safety rated, and covered under a comprehensive general liability insurance. In the unlikely event that there is an issue with our battery systems we are prepared to work with you to resolve things quickly and responsibly.

  • Yes! Members who opt to pay for a portion of the system cost can save up to 70% more. If you are looking to make investments to maximize savings we encourage you to explore a prepaid plan with us.
