For Southern California solar homeowners

Your solar works all day.
What happens after sunset?

If you already have solar but no battery, REECH can review your utility bill, existing equipment, evening usage, and backup goals to determine whether a battery retrofit makes sense.

Independent educational review. Eligibility, funding, savings, and equipment compatibility are not guaranteed.

Why evening usage matters

Daytime solar. Evening utility prices.

SCE’s published residential prices show why the timing of your electricity use matters—not just how much electricity you use.

SCE residential average34.4¢/kWh

SCE’s published average residential rate effective June 1, 2026, before the California Climate Credit.

Your existing solar$0 fuel cost

Sunlight has no fuel charge, but your true solar cost still includes the system, financing, maintenance, production, and lifespan.

Illustration only—not a savings estimate. A battery has efficiency losses, capacity limits, equipment costs, and rate-plan effects. REECH reviews your actual bill and system before estimating value. See SCE TOU rates ↗

Program & incentive guide

There may be more than one pathway.

Programs have different rules, funding limits, equipment requirements, and application steps. REECH helps identify which options deserve a closer look.

California

SGIP & Equity Pathways

Eligibility varies

California's Self-Generation Incentive Program supports qualifying energy-storage projects. SCE currently reports that general ratepayer-funded SGIP budgets are closed to new applicants, while certain equity pathways may have separate eligibility and funding.

  • Income, location, medical, resiliency, or other rules may apply
  • Funding status must be verified before relying on an incentive
  • Approval is handled by the applicable program administrator

Business & third-party ownership

Clean Electricity Investment Credit

Base credit + possible bonuses

The federal Section 48E credit may apply when an eligible taxpayer owns qualifying clean-electricity or energy-storage property. For residential projects, the tax owner may be a business or third-party provider rather than the homeowner.

  • The homeowner residential credit ended for property placed in service after 2025
  • Ownership, placed-in-service timing, equipment, and labor rules matter
  • Credit value is not automatically passed through to the homeowner

Location-based federal bonus

Energy Community Bonus

Up to +10 percentage points

A qualifying Section 48E project located in an IRS-defined energy community may receive an additional investment-credit amount. The project location and applicable energy-community category must be verified.

  • Possible categories include certain brownfields and qualifying fossil-energy or coal communities
  • A project does not qualify simply because it is in SCE territory
  • The eligible taxpayer—not REECH—claims and substantiates the credit

Equipment sourcing federal bonus

Domestic Content Bonus

Up to +10 percentage points

A qualifying Section 48E project may receive an additional investment-credit amount when required U.S. steel, iron, and manufactured-product rules are met and properly certified.

  • Product branding or U.S. assembly alone does not prove qualification
  • Project-level equipment documentation and certification are required
  • Availability depends on the tax owner and final project configuration

The REECH Battery Retrofit Review

Answers before equipment.

We start with the system you already own. The review helps determine whether the next step is a battery design, an on-site diagnostic, more incentive research, or simply no change.

  2. 02
    Review fit and eligibility

    Utility, generation provider, rate plan, evening use, compatibility, and likely program pathways.

    Choose a clear next step

    No-fit, diagnostic, design and proposal, or installation consultation.

Straightforward answers

No “free battery” promises.

REECH does not represent SCE, Clean Power Alliance, the CPUC, or the IRS. We do not guarantee incentive approval, funding, savings, backup duration, or installation timing. We verify the facts for the service address and solar system before recommending a next step.
