Battery Backup for Woodland Park Homes
Keep water, heat and the essentials running in forested Teller County when the lines go down.
Battery Storage for Woodland Park homes
Woodland Park sits in thick ponderosa forest in Teller County, and the power lines run through it. On high-risk days those lines are set to trip fast, and wind or snow can take them down outright.
Many homes here outside town limits depend on a well. We size battery backup to cover the pump, the furnace blower, the fridge and internet, and switchover is automatic. Every install carries our 10-year workmanship warranty.

Why Woodland Park loses power
CORE's wildfire mitigation material presented to Clear Creek County names Woodland Park among its service districts and describes an alternate relay setting for risk areas: a fast trip with a single reclose. Lines through dense forest are exactly where that applies.
Check your own lot's wildfire exposure on the Colorado Forest Atlas risk viewer, then we'll plan backup around what you'd need if the line stays off.
What's different about battery backup in Woodland Park
- Woodland Park is a CORE Electric Cooperative district, and we work within CORE's process.
- Forested Teller County lines can use fast-trip settings in wildfire season, which means more short outages.
- Developed lots in Teller County mostly rely on wells and septic, as the Gazette has noted. If your home is on a well, we check the pump's startup load on site and size for it.
- Snow loads and tree cover affect equipment placement, which we plan with you.
Your utility and programs
Woodland Park homes are generally served by CORE Electric Cooperative. Battery programs depend on your utility, so we confirm current program terms with CORE for your address and handle the interconnection paperwork.
Woodland Park battery backup FAQs
Can you add a battery to my existing solar in Woodland Park?
Often, yes. We inspect your current inverter and main panel, confirm who owns the system, and check whether your well pump can be added to the backup circuits. Then we recommend storage that fits. If your system is leased, we'll review your lease terms.
Can a battery run my well pump in Woodland Park?
Often, yes, if it's sized for it. Developed lots in Teller County mostly rely on wells and septic, as the Gazette has noted. Well pumps surge when they start, so we measure the startup load on site and size the battery to handle it with your other essentials.
Why does my Woodland Park power go out on windy fire-season days?
On higher-risk lines CORE can use a fast-trip setting with a single reclose. If the fault doesn't clear, power stays off until crews inspect the line. A battery covers your chosen circuits while you wait.
Which battery fits a Woodland Park home with a well?
It depends on the pump and your other loads. We're certified on Enphase, Tesla Powerwall, Franklin (FranklinWH) and EG4, and some handle pump startup surges better than others in a given setup. We measure on site, recommend one, and back the work with a 10-year workmanship warranty.
