Free Cape Cod Solar Battery Backup Calculator

Size your Sol-Ark + EG4 whole home backup power system in 3 minutes

Step 1 of 4

What's on your property right now?

Most homes in coastal New England already have something. Your starting point determines what you need to add, and how much it costs.

What this means for you
Step 2 of 4

How much energy do you use?

This sizes your battery correctly, enough to run what matters without over-building.

$
Eversource blended rate: $0.325/kWh annual avg (Mar 2026). Use a summer month as your baseline, winter bills run higher.

Check everything you want backed up. We'll size the inverter and battery from your actual load.
Step 3 of 4

Where is your home?

We pull real solar data for your specific location from NREL's national database. More accurate than a regional default.

Default if left blank: Cape Cod, MA, 4.3 peak sun hours/day

This sets how much battery storage we include. More battery = more hours before you'd ever need a generator. All designs include solar + generator backup for extended events.

Recommended: 24 hours of battery-only autonomy means your system handles 95% of all power outages on battery alone. During storms, limited solar extends this further. Generator is insurance for extended nor'easters when clouds persist for days.
Portable is the default, store it in the garage, roll out when needed. Standby is permanent with auto-start and runs on natural gas or propane.
