### Is my roof suitable for solar panels in Cranberry Township?

During our free on-site evaluation in Cranberry Township, we assess your roof's condition, angle, shade exposure, and load capacity. The majority of homes in Butler County have roofs that work for solar. If yours needs attention first, we can coordinate roofing through trusted partners before installation.

### Do solar batteries work during a power outage in Butler County?

Yes, that's their primary advantage. When the grid goes down, your battery automatically disconnects from Duquesne Light's grid and powers your designated circuits. The switchover is automatic with most modern battery systems. Your solar panels can also continue charging the battery during daylight hours throughout the outage.

### Can a battery help me save money on my Duquesne Light bill?

With net metering through Duquesne Light, a battery lets you store excess daytime solar production and use it during evening peak hours instead of buying grid electricity. Depending on your rate plan, this energy arbitrage can add meaningful savings beyond what solar alone provides for Cranberry Township homeowners.

### Is a solar battery worth the investment in PA?

For Cranberry Township homeowners, a battery provides both outage protection and potential savings through energy arbitrage with Duquesne Light. As utility rates continue rising, the financial case for batteries strengthens each year.
