Aside from systems for remote locations, most of the systems we install are grid-connected. Because of restrictions related to time-of-use generation, the systems cannot use batteries and therefore do not generate power during a blackout. Off-grid systems we install in remote locations do use batteries in order to provide energy when the sun is not shining.
