North of the river
Palmetto, Ellenton and Parrish sit on the north side of the Manatee River, across from Bradenton. Most of Manatee County gets its power from Florida Power & Light, and Peace River Electric Cooperative covers parts of the east county.
A battery is the quiet option for backup power. It doesn't burn fuel, so there's nothing to keep in the garage, and it switches on by itself when the grid goes down.

Battery backup for Palmetto homes
With solar panels on the roof, the battery refills every sunny day and the panels earn bill credits the rest of the time. Without them, it charges from the grid and waits for the next outage.
Palmetto battery and solar questions
Do you work in Palmetto?
Yes. We work in Palmetto, Ellenton, Parrish and across the river in Bradenton.
Do I need solar panels to get a battery?
No. A battery can charge from the grid and wait for the next outage. If you add panels later, it can also recharge from the sun while the grid is down.
Is a battery quieter than a generator?
Yes. A battery has no engine, so it's close to silent, and there's no exhaust or fuel to deal with.
