“They were very straightforward - clear communication from start to finish, no surprises, install team was awesome and the product works great. The price was much less expensive than other quotes I got for solar and batteries.”
Roughly half the lifetime cost of PG&E electricity.
Solar, battery, smart panel, and software, designed as one system.

Over the next decade you’ll add an EV charger, swap the furnace and water heater for heat pumps, and replace the gas range with induction. Every one of those decisions runs through your electrical panel, and increases your reliance on the grid.
They sell solar and batteries. They don’t consider your home as one connected energy system.
Every design decision is made to lower your cost over the long run.
Same upfront price as the typical Bay Area quote. Roughly double the value over the long run.

“Production is right where they said it would be, and we've already had a PG&E power outage where the whole-home battery backup worked flawlessly.”

“Even after installation, they’ve continued supporting me to optimize performance.”
The person who designs your system signs off on the final install. No call-center handoff, no salesperson disappearing after you sign. The first conversation is a design consultation with the engineer who would run your project.

Electrical engineer. Shifted focus to climate in 2023 and started Potrero to accelerate residential decarbonization in a way that maximally benefits the grid. The more we can help the grid, the more we can accelerate electrification across the world's fifth-largest economy.

Licensed electrician with over 20 years of experience in the solar and storage industry across Northern California. Takes pride in high-quality work with a clean, professional aesthetic. Climate work makes it easy to get up in the morning.

Moved to San Francisco from Copenhagen, where he worked in external affairs at one of the world's largest energy companies. Was part of Denmark's largest carbon capture and storage project, still on trajectory to be a major milestone for the country.

Spent the last four years building residential energy software: dynamic EV charging that follows real-time prices, virtual power plants that dispatch home batteries to the grid. Now bringing this technology to Bay Area homes.
Most of our projects land between $30,000 and $55,000 all in, including the smart panel, battery, solar array, permitting, and PG&E hookup.
A typical system pays back in 5 to 12 years.The more power your home uses, the faster it pays back. We’ll model it for your actual usage and your actual plans during the consultation.
You invest in the equipment. No monthly leases, no PPAs. Buy with cash, or secure a loan through a credit union that we trust.
A 30-minute design consultation, with the engineer who would run your project. We’ll bring the conservative case and a fixed price. If it doesn’t pencil for your house, we’ll say so.
