4 FAQs about Backup power storage project

How does a battery backup system work?

These sophisticated energy storage solutions function as intermediaries between your home's electrical system and various power sources, including the electrical grid, solar panels, and generators. At the core of every whole house battery backup system lies the energy conversion process.

Why do businesses need backup power?

Backup power capabilities give businesses continuity during grid outages. While not typically sized for multi-day outages (that's still generator territory), a BESS project can provide hours of backup power for critical systems—more than enough to ride through most grid disturbances without disrupting operations.

Will battery storage become a standard component of energy infrastructure?

From utility-scale installations like our San Juan Capistrano project to commercial and residential systems, battery storage will become a standard component of energy infrastructure at all scales. At Compass Energy Storage, we're not just watching these trends—we're actively implementing these innovations in our projects.
