Understanding the Increased Interest in Storage
The solar industry has seen a significant rise in interest towards residential storage solutions, with 82% of solar installers reporting an increased demand from homeowners. This interest can be attributed to various factors, including the growing popularity of electric vehicles (EVs), the ability to optimize energy consumption through Time-of-Use (TOU) rates, and the desire for greater energy independence and security.

Despite the surge in interest, effectively selling storage solutions can still pose challenges for solar installers. Homeowners may have varying needs and motivations when considering storage options, which can make it difficult to tailor sales pitches accordingly.
