Client Profile
Back in 2015, we installed a 6.72 kW system on the south and western roof aspects of the Peacock's home. We always design our systems to be modular so that they can be expanded at any point in the future, which is exactly what the Peacocks decided to do four years later. The final expansion design included eight more modules for combined total capacity of 9.24 kW, as well as two Tesla Powerwalls. Adding battery back up will enable the house to run on solar when the sun goes down at night, as well as during the frequent short-term blackouts that this area experiences. This system is the first "whole home" battery back up solution that OnSite Energy has installed!
Case Study
It's no secret that the solar community tends to draw some pretty awesome people, and we are lucky to meet such talented and interesting folks along the way through our work! Andrea Peacock, author and journalist, runs the Elk River Arts & Lectures, a non-profit that is dedicated to promoting and cultivating Livingston's literary heritage. Doug Peacock, and conservation activist, founded the Save the Yellowstone Grizzly, non-profit that has been fighting for the safety and welfare of grizzly bears and their habitat.
