What types of businesses benefit most from solar and battery storage?

Commercial solar and BESS systems are ideal for:

Industrial facilities

Manufacturing plants

Warehouses & logistics operations

Cold storage

Retail centers & hospitality

Office buildings

Municipal & fleet operations

Any facility with high energy usage, peak-demand charges, or outage risk can benefit significantly.

How much can my business save with solar and battery storage?

Savings vary by facility, but most clients reduce:

Overall energy costs by 20–50%

Peak demand charges by 30–60%

Outage-related losses entirely

Pairing solar + BESS typically delivers the highest ROI and fastest payback.

Does California offer incentives for solar, battery storage, and EV charging?

Yes. California has some of the strongest programs in the country.
Eligible businesses can receive 35–50%+ in combined incentives for:

Solar energy systems

Burge Energy handles all incentive guidance and applications.

What is a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS)?

A BESS is a commercial battery system that:

Stores energy for later use

Reduces on-peak utility consumption

Provides backup power (4–12+ hours)

Improves energy reliability

It works seamlessly with your existing utility power and/or solar.

How long can a battery system provide backup power?

Most commercial installations provide 4 to 12+ hours of backup capacity, depending on:

Facility size

Critical loads

Battery configuration

Solar integration

Systems can be engineered for longer durations if needed.
