HelioPower's storage practice brings together energy analytics, project finance, engineering, construction and asset management services in customized solutions for clients. “I’ve always been a proponent of energy autonomy and the installation of my energy storage system is a significant milestone in my sustainability program to reduce energy costs.” Said Jay Marsh, a homeowner and HelioPower customer. Today, the most common form of energy storage is based on some form of battery storage. With HelioPower’s integrated turnkey energy solutions, the Marsh residence was able to complete their renewable energy initiative on time and on budget.
