Is $34,900 to install a FranklinWH aGate and two aPower 2 batteries for solar backup a fair price?

Project Details

I have a 16.8 kW grid-tied solar array with DS3 microinverters. I want a battery setup to be able to use the solar array when the grid is down.

Quote Details

This quote is for a battery backup system designed to allow the solar array to be used when the grid is down. The system includes: - FranklinWH aGate - Two FranklinWH aPower 2 batteries - Labor, parts, and installation Note: The aGate can only handle 75% of the existing 16.8 kW solar array. The remaining panels will continue to be grid-tied, producing for the building/grid, but will not be accessible during a grid outage.

Thank you for your feedback!
