Take Control of Your Electricity with Solar Panels & a Home Battery in California

With Sunrun in California, You Can Beat High Electric Rates and Power Outages

Keep Your Lights on During Outages and Help Mitigate CA Wildfires with Brightbox 

During the past 10 years, more than 22 million Californians have been affected by power outages.⁴ And as energy demand increases and climate change makes California power outages and related wildfires more common every year. At Sunrun, we believe families deserve access to cleaner, safer, and more reliable energy solutions.

Brightbox™ home battery is charged by the panels on your roof. Our home battery lets you store the excess solar power you produce to keep your devices and appliances running during an outage, or at night, for approximately 8 to 12 hours.*

With Brightbox, you’ll stay in control even under California’s Time-of-Use rate spikes. But Brightbox is more than a solar battery in California because it includes professional monitoring and maintenance for 25 years. Monitoring and maintenance may prolong your battery’s life.
