A pilot project that provides backup power for your home

City Green has partnered with BC Hydro to deliver the Residential Battery Direct Install Program. We're offering residents in specific geographical areas a complimentary battery energy storage system. This pilot program is limited to invited customers located in areas of high growth and increasing demand for electricity. Apply to take advantage of this opportunity to receive a fully certified, professionally installed battery system that increases your energy flexibility and provides backup power in the case of a power outage.

The offer

Accepted applicants will receive one battery storage system from Eguana Technologies, professionally installed. It’s a fully certified system that will be configured to support your home during power outages.

The program covers the cost of the battery and its installation. You’re responsible for its ongoing maintenance, and removal and reinstallation should you need to remove it.

What is a battery energy storage system?

It's a battery for your home that stores excess, renewable electricity, charged from BC Hydro’s grid. It increases your resilience to power outages, capable of powering your home’s major equipment such as lighting, fridge and localized electric space heating and more for about 48 hours.
