Generac PWRcell 2 Solar Battery Storage
Store More. Save More. Stay Powered.
Your solar panels produce clean energy throughout the day—but without battery storage, much of that power may go unused or be sent back to the utility. The Generac PWRcell® 2 changes that by storing excess solar energy so you can use it when it matters most.
Whether you’re looking to reduce electric bills, protect your home during outages, or become less dependent on the utility grid, Alternative Power can design and install a Generac battery storage system tailored to your home’s energy needs.

Get More From Your Solar Investment
Adding battery storage transforms your solar system from simply producing electricity to actively managing it.
With a Generac PWRcell 2 system, you can:
- Store excess solar energy for nighttime use
- Keep essential appliances running during power outages
- Reduce reliance on expensive utility electricity
- Take advantage of time-of-use utility rates where available
- Gain greater control over your home’s energy usage
Instead of letting valuable solar production go to waste, you’ll have power available whenever you need it.
Backup Power When You Need It Most
Power outages can happen without warning. A battery storage system helps keep your home operating when the utility grid goes down.
The Generac PWRcell 2 automatically detects outages and begins supplying stored energy to your home. Combined with intelligent load management, you can prioritize the circuits and appliances that matter most, helping extend backup power during longer outages.
For homeowners who want even greater protection, the system can also integrate with a Generac home standby generator to provide virtually continuous backup power.
Smart Energy Management
The PWRcell 2 does more than store electricity—it helps you manage it intelligently.
Monitor your home’s energy production, battery level, and power usage through an easy-to-use mobile app. Make adjustments remotely, monitor system performance, and stay informed wherever you are.
Intelligent controls help maximize battery performance while optimizing how your home uses available energy.
How Battery Storage Works
1. Capture Energy
Solar panels generate electricity throughout the day.
2. Store Excess Power
Instead of sending all unused electricity back to the grid, your battery stores it for later.
3. Use Energy Anytime
Power your home after sunset, during periods of high utility rates, or whenever the grid experiences an outage.
4. Increase Energy Independence
By using more of the electricity your system produces, you rely less on the utility company and gain greater control over your energy costs.
Designed to Grow With Your Home
Every household has different energy requirements.
The modular design of the Generac PWRcell 2 allows storage capacity to be expanded as your needs change. Whether you’re adding electric vehicles, increasing your home’s energy usage, or planning for additional backup capacity, your system can be configured to fit your goals.
Alternative Power will help determine the right battery size and system configuration for your home.
