Your utility: Xcel Energy or another provider
Xcel's Colorado communities list includes Acres Green for gas and electric service. We treat Acres Green as 'check the bill' territory. If your meter is Xcel's, its interconnection rules and battery programs apply; if not, we use your utility's own process.
Roofs, hail and HOA review
We check roof age, panel capacity and HOA rules on the first visit. If the roof is close to replacement, we can coordinate the timing so you don't remove panels a few years later.
Battery backup in Acres Green
Acres Green's detached homes have the roof space and garages that make a solar-plus-battery project straightforward. Batteries we install: Enphase, Tesla Powerwall, Franklin and EG4. They pair with new panels or with solar already on the roof.
If your meter is on Xcel, Renewable Battery Connect pays $250 per kW of battery capacity, up to $5,000, for Tesla Powerwall and Enphase IQ batteries.
