NO COMMISSION · NOTHING SOLD

Is a battery worth it at your site?

An independent, measured feasibility read for Illinois commercial sites. We reconstruct your real demand structure from your own ComEd interval data, size what storage could actually cut against it, and set that beside the current Illinois incentives. You get a written answer built on measurement, not a sales projection, including when the honest answer is that a battery does not pencil.

$500 flat, one-time. We do not sell batteries or take an installer's commission, so no one is paying us to reach a conclusion. Start with the free demand-charge check below; it credits toward your read.

Your measured demand structure, to the cent.

A battery only pays when it can cut the demand charge, and that turns on the shape of your peaks: the exact half hours that set the charge, which months a battery could shave, and which it never could. Your read is built on this measured foundation, reconstructed from your own ComEd data, not a projection. Here it is on an example account.

Example, on a real anonymized ComEd commercial account

1 meter (site-coincident), Jul 23, 2025 to Aug 21, 2025. Demand charge $3,619.13: billed peak 242.57 kW at Jul 23, 2025, 2:00 PM, 242.57 kW × $14.92/kW. Reconciled to bill.

Every number carries its source

Each figure is a claim with a provenance badge, and links to the chart that proves it. Nothing here is asserted without its evidence.
